In times of struggle, people have always turned to folk music. From labor anthems to civil rights ballads, these songs remind us who we are and what we’re fighting for. Today, as the world feels increasingly chaotic, folk music is once again rising up to meet the moment.
On this episode of Good Skews, Matt Hildreth sits down with singer, songwriter, and podcaster Lizzie No to talk about the folk revival happening right now. Lizzie shares her journey from New Jersey to Nashville, her vision of folk as a living practice rather than a museum piece, and why contemporary voices matter if the genre is going to stay politically sharp.
