Folk Music
Folk music is a music genre that includes traditional folk music and the contemporary genre that evolved from the former during the 20th-century folk revival. Some types of folk music may be called world music. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted orally, music with unknown composers, music that is played on traditional instruments, music about cultural or national identity, music that changes between generations (folk process), music associated with a people's folklore, or music performed by custom over a long period of time. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. The term originated in the 19th century, but folk music extends beyond that.

Bombshell (King Creosote Album)
''Bombshell'' is an album by King Creosote, released in 2007. Regarding the album, Kenny Anderson states that: The new ones are pretty much my insecurities or paranoia of whatever I'm going through at this part of my life. I've got a daughter now, she's 8 and there's a song "Church as Witness" about a fall out she and I had, and yeah, there's others coming from a sort of older period in time just about all different things really. They are some comedy things on there. A lot of it I suppose is relationship based and then I suppose there's "You've No clue Do You?" which is a kind of a "who-done-it?" in the grand "Cluedo ''Cluedo'' (), known as ''Clue'' in North America, is a murder mystery game for three to six players (depending on editions) that was devised in 1943 by British board game designer Anthony E.
