A Sensation Once Again: Brian Warfield of the Wolfe Tones (Live at Mindfield, EP)
Three Castles Burning · 2024-08-20
Seeing the inevitable headlines on the horizon around the Wolfe Tones performing at Electric Picnic, I decided to reach out to Brian Warfield for a chat about his book, The Ramblings of an Irish Ballad Singer. Amongst other things, Brian spoke to me about his family origins, why the Tones recorded songs like 'The Sash', and the importance of the English folk music revival for his band.
