I wonder if this makes me an old foogie or hip since I like FOLK music. Makes me think I need to go and put on a long hippie dress, find my jesus shoes, ditch the bra, throw my arms up in the air and spin around starring at the sky because I like FOLK music. LOL
I am going with HIP because it is kinda new music. See what I got off Wikipedia:
Indie folk is a music genre that arose in the 1990s from singer/songwriters in the indie rock community showing heavy influences from folk music scenes of the 50's, 60's and early 70's. A few early artists included Beck, Elliott Smith and Lou Barlow. This genre is often closely related to others including freak folk, psych folk, Baroque pop and New Weird America.[1] This genre has been steadily growing in popularity with bands such as Fleet Foxes, Beirut and Bon Iver. It is also being aided by festivals such as Bonnaroo and Coachella.
