About this Item

Title

  • Wild Mountain Thyme"

Summary

  • The American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress challenged musical artists to interpret material from its unparalleled archive of ethnographic recordings of traditional folk music. Artists were asked to put their own spin on these archival treasures, and to perform them at a special showcase during the Folk Alliance International conference in Kansas City in 2018. The showcase was recorded for this webcast. This video features the Waterford, Ireland band In the Willows performing "Wild Mountain Thyme." Sourced from a concert performed by the McPeake Family in the Coolidge Auditorium, Library of Congress on May 16, 2007 and a black and white film from the Pete and Toshi Seeger film collection of the McPeake family in Belfast in 1963.
