At 成人快手 with Rachel Unthank
Verity Sharp hosts a series of conversations and solo performances recorded at home by UK musicians. For this episode, it鈥檚 the turn of Northumberland-based singer Rachel Unthank.
From her garage studio in Wiltshire, Verity Sharp calls up musicians who are rooted in traditional music, exercises their home-recording skills, and asks them to sing something that鈥檚 been particularly resonating for them during lockdown. In this episode Rachel Unthank shares how her childhood memory of songs is helping with home schooling.
In this period of social distancing, how is music helping us keep connected to the things that matter? With its deep links to people, communities, land, nature and history, folk song has much to offer at this point in time.
Presented and produced by Verity Sharp.
