Folk artists

Folk artists are musicians or creators who draw inspiration from traditional, cultural, or community-based sources, often reflecting the stories, customs, and history of their local or cultural groups. Their work tends to emphasize authenticity and oral traditions, emphasizing acoustic instruments, simple melodies, and lyrics that tell meaningful stories. Unlike mainstream artists, folk artists focus on preserving and celebrating cultural heritage, often performing at community events or folk festivals. Their art serves as a living expression of collective identity and history, connecting audiences to shared roots and experiences.
