Linda Fahey’s (Ten More) Favorites of 2021

It’s hard to find the time to put my ‘Best of’ list together each year, and this year most of my favorite artists, albums, and songs have been covered already in other Folk Alley host/staff lists, e.g. Allison Russell, Yasmin Williams, Watchhouse, Hayes Carll, Amy Helm, Billy Strings, etc… but here are ten more favorites who are worthy of your attention, that didn’t make any other Folk Alley lists.

To hear songs from this list, other Folk Alley staff/host lists, and our Folk Alley listener poll results, check out our FreshCuts side stream – the Best of 2021 edition.
