[dar-list] Who's the New Dar?

[Ellen Rawson]

Personally, I rather like Devon Sproule, but I think
she may have a bigger following in the UK right now
than in her native US.

Karine Polwart is getting a bit of a following as a
political and protest singer. We just saw her perform
in London on Tuesday night -- full house at the
beautiful Bloomsbury Theatre. If you've not heard of
her, check her out. She started as the lead singer of
Malinkey, a Scottish traditional band, but her first
solo album, Faultlines (and I do recommend starting
with that one), won a number of BBC Folk awards.
