Folk Fury
Folk Fury is a three hour program that incorporates various types of music. Folk music has a history of being passed down from one generation to the next. For centuries folk music has brought cultures together. With Host Dan Alloway and Gregg Carthy, Folk Fury brings forth the pure harmonic style of folk. Folk Fury first aired in the 1960's, but faded out for most of the 70’s. The show was resurrected in the 1980’s by Alloway and Marvin Rosenbaum.The show exposes you to music you cannot easily find in our area. With unique blends of bluegrass, blues, western swing, progressive country and of course, folk music, Folk Fury allows you to explore the simpler, yet rhythmic side of life.
