Folk News: January 16th-22nd 2015

Lots to listen to, and, in which, if you're so minded and able, to participate.  As usual, there are tracks from artists you can hear 'locally' in the course of this week's Folk For All.  I'm reliably informed that Lynne & Pat will be at the Barcombe Sing after their guest appearance at Seaford.  L&P are good friends of Folk For All, as is Chris Davis, who joins two more FFA friends Jo & Graham at Woodies on Sunday.  FFA friend Keith Kendrick is at Dorking on Wednesday.
