About the Show
Foolkiller Folk
The Foolkiller Folk collective explores the storytelling, cultural, and protest power of folk music from as far back as the Child Ballads through as current as released today.
"When one becomes enlightened one kills the fool within" -Jack Conroy
Well, we figure that if you want Irish music, you’ll be at the Irish Fest, so today it’s our privilege and honor to bring you songs about work in honor of Labor Day.
We’ll have songs about working in the coal mines, songs about working on the railroad; some sea chanties; a cotton mill set; and, needless to say, songs about unions (who we can thank for weekends and the 8 hour day) and bosses, among others, and we’ll end with a reminder from Charlie King that ‘Our Life Is More Than Our Work and Our Work Is More Than Our Job’
