It's catch-up time. The Invisible Folk Club radio show is currently syndicated to eight community or local stations, six based in the UK with the other two mainland Europe. Jon Bickley presents the show, Steve Yarwood is Producer.

Nothing in the broad church of trad folk, roots or Americana is off limits, there are so many shades. Our show features established artists, rising stars, quality new music, blasts from the past.

In the final part of our festive trilogy we reflect on the old year and ring in the new. For centuries, wassailing was a key part of year-end celebrations. 'Wassail' derives from the old Norse for 'good health' usually involving drinking and raucous singing. Bring us in good ale!
