  • A New History of American and Canadian Folk Music

    Kip LornellARTICLEJournal of American Folklore2022

    Because it mostly covers so much familiar territory, this book's title, A New History of American and Canadian Folk Music, is misleading primarily because there is not much “New” here. Weissman largely recounts well-known information about the usual suspects: the importance of Alan Lomax, the impact of the 1950s/1960s “folk revival,” the rise of folk festivals, and so on. The “Canadian” suggests a new geographic perspective on this expansive topi…

    Kip LornellARTICLEBlack Music Research Journal2000

    Huddie Ledbetter, better known as Leadbelly, was arguably the most famous African-American folk singer in U.S. history. (1) Born in 1889 in Caddo Parish, Louisiana (near Shreveport), Leadbelly grew up in an almost entirely black world at the beginning of the decade when the most virulent Jim Crow laws were passed across the United States. His life and music mediated between Reconstruction and post-industrial America; he grew up on a small owned b…

    Kip LornellARTICLEAmerican Music1987

    It is only since the early 1960s that scholarly interest in the history and development of American country music has gained acceptability in academic circles.' Researchers have largely focused on the careers of recording such as Bob Wills, Jimmie Rodgers, and Grandpa Jones2 and, to a lesser degree, those artists who performed on the radio.3 But recent books by Charles Wolfe and Ivan Tribe have broadened the geographic scope of research by presen…
