Official Folk Albums Chart Show—5th December 2023

Johnny Flynn and Robert Macfarlane are Matthew Bannister’s guests on this month’s Official Folk Albums Chart Show from Folk on Foot. They talk about the inspiration behind their new album “The Moon Also Rises” in a conversation that ranges across ancient burial chambers, a love song for Cosmo Sheldrake’s wedding, composing on the South Downs and wassailing. There’s also music from Thea Gilmore, Catrin Finch and Aoife Ni Bhriain, Bryony Griffith and Alice Jones, Show of Hands and Kerry Andrew/You Are Wolf.
