Did you know there are historic songs that recognize God as feminine? For hundreds of years, the Shakers, a communalist faith tradition, have described the Divine in feminine and masculine aspects: There is God the Mother as well as God the Father. This joyful song depicts the Mother (who may also be a representation of Shaker co-founder Mother Ann Lee) working a spindle, producing love and unity between peoples as she twists the fibers into threads.  In the year ahead, we’ll need songs like this one to embolden and reassure us as we combat sexism and threats to the rights of many. Let’s be ready while we stand on the shoulders of such beautiful songs and singers.  Start your year with my course “Badass Women in Folk Song!” Badass Women in Folk Song is a 6 week course that you can take virtually (or locally if you’re in western NC)! In our time together, we’ll learn a one-of-a-kind collection of ballads and songs about witches, warriors and triumphant women from Scotland, England and Appalachia, and strategies of resistance that these songs teach us. With the dire times we’re in, Badass Women is intended to be a balm to carry you through the winter. We start in mid-January- check out the schedule and regis ter using the link in my bi o! I’m offering a major dis count- but only for one more day!  Lyrics: Round a round the mother’s blessing  Goes round, round the world around Round a round the mother’s blessing  Goes round, round the world around Twisiting strands of love and union into life’s eternal bliss Mother’s hand is on the spindle, turning us to peace and rest #hermusic #womeninmusic #holywomen #womenempowerment #womenoffolk #womensstruggles #womensrights #womenshistory #feministhistory #divinefeminine #reproductiverights #feministmusic #bard #medievalwomen #folksongs #abortionrights #righttochoose #transhistory

This song, “Katey Cruel” which originally comes from Scotland, is told from the perspective of a s-x worker who, in many versions, is following an army infantry for her work. The lyrics of this folk song (which you’ll learn if you join my course) depict her sense of independence, her pursuit of the one she loves, and the ironies of how she’s treated by the clients she soothes.   This coming year, with everything that’s changing politically, we’ll need songs to embolden and reassure us as we combat sexism and threats to the rights of many.  Start off 2025 with my course “Badass Women in Folk Song!” This is a 6 week course that you can take virtually (or locally if you’re in western NC)! In our time together, we’ll learn a one-of-a-kind collection of ballads and songs about witches, warriors and triumphant women from Scotland, England and Appalachia. We’ll also get to explore what these songs have to teach us about women’s historic tactics of resistance, and enjoy writing our own songs using traditional tunes and techniques. You’ll also get loads of materials- recorded songs, historic lectures, YouTube playlists and more! With the dire times we’re in, Badass Women is intended to be a balm to carry you through the winter and beyond!

Well *I* think my class is pretty freakin’ awesome, but you don’t have to take my word for it :) I love teaching this class for the way it helps us reach back to commune with the lives and choices of women/femmes and trans folks of the past. Rooting with their experiences through song makes these spiritual ancestors come alive and move through us with a power that a history book just can’t do. And it hardly needs to be said that we need to feel the strength of these voices now more than ever.  You can take Badass Women in Folk Song through one of two virtual cohorts or in person if you’re near Asheville, NC! You can get the full schedule and reg ister by going to the links in the linktr.ee in my byo! Virtual Cohorts start Thursday, January 16th!  -Virtual Cohort 1: Thursdays, 12:30-2:30pm EDT/9:30-11:30 PT/5:30-7:30 GMT -Virtual Cohort 2: Thursdays, 6:30-8:30pm EDT/3:30-5:30 PT/11:30-1:30am GMT The Asheville cohort starts Monday, January 13th!

Who are your favorite “sheroes” in traditional songs? There are so many fierce women I love from the old songs and ballads- women who do daring feats, who use magic, fight off their attackers, or curse their enemies. But I also love songs that illustrate powerful, everyday protest too. Folk songs don’t just help us witness the experiences of others- they also teach a variety of tactics of resistance.  We’ll be exploring what songs like this one have to teach us in my upcoming offering Badass Women in Folk Song. This six week class explores songs from Scotland, England and Appalachia about powerful, subversive women- just what we need in these times! You’ll get a chance to write your own songs “in the tradition” as well!  You can take this class over zoom (with two different times to choose from) or locally if you’re in western NC!  I’m offering this class at a big discount, so take advantage now!  Virtual cohorts start on January 16th, and the in-person cohort starts on January 13th!

Do you know this Appalachian ballad, “West Virginia Mine Disaster,” by female folk legend Jean Ritchie? This song, inspired by the disastrous Farmington/Mannington Mine Disaster in West Virginia in 1968, is told from the perspective of a miner’s wife. We hear her perspective as she receives the news that her husband may be trapped in a mine accident. Her thoughts race as she thinks about the fate of her family. Songs like these by Appalachian women give an important perspective often missing from our labor histories.  In my Badass Women in Folk Song course (starting this week) we’ll get to explore working women’s songs of protest- and so much more! This is a 6 week course exploring songs from Scotland, England and Ireland about women/femmes/non-binary and trans folks who use their intellect, magic work, strength and humor to triumph in the face of patriarchy. We have two online cohorts you can join- learn more by going to the link in my bio!  #appalachiansong #jeanritchie #womenoffolk #unionpower #unionrights #unionproud #solidarity #laborrights #appalachianmusic #workersrights #fairwages #unionhistory #appalachianfolk #womenswisdom #matriarchy #hermusic #womeninmusic #womenempowerment #womenoffolk #womensstruggles #womensrights #abortionstories #womenshistory #feministhistory #reproductiverights #feministmusic #bard #folksongs #abortionrights
