I'm a 25yo Ismaili Muslim, Folk musician and migrant laborer. I immigrated from Palestine to the US at 7 with only my brother and an oud. I just released my debut album of Anarchist folk punk protest songs.

This is a song i wrote in 2018 before I knew how dark things actually are. Although im not in the least bit surprised
Memory
Wrote this song a couple years back. It came about because I really really hated myself and everything my adult life had become. 15 plus years of fking up and I hadnt even imagined id be alive past 30…its a original of mine wrote under the influnce of shame.
747% original work wrote by me- matthe 🪳🐀😬
Here's our annual reminder that Ren, whether or not he plays Folk Punk, will be appreciated by a lot of us.
youtu.beHow much is a thing like this worth? Bought day of summer PIX 2016
Make Total Destroy (Pat the Bunny cover)
I’ve been learning how to play the mandolin (and how to sing and strum) for the past year. Here’s one of the songs I’ve been learning and was feeling good enough about share.
Recommendations
I’ve been digging some Lost Dog Street Band, and Trampled by Turtles. Im not even sure what I’ve been listening to is folk punk or bluegrass. But I’m done for some suggestions on what to check out next. Rail Yard Ghost are ok, the Bridge City Sinners I really like. Holy Locust I could listen to forever. And I do enjoy some songs from BlackBird Raum. Hope what I have posted will help with recommendations
Singing drummers
I already know hail seizures, what other folk punk bands have a drummer vocalist?
Cause everything's fine but I won't open my eyes if I know I ain't been honest with you
DONUT LARSEN
Last one broke the rules but if you didn't check it out: SEB LOWE
Route Nine Legends lyrics
I know I'm a bit late to asking this since it has somehow already been over a year since the album released, but I wanted to give myself some time to turn it over in my mind first.
What do you make of the final part of Pat's singing in Route Nine Legends? The lyrics there are:
>I think that there are some things that we can't ever change, but I don't mean some great evil or cowardice inside.
There could be a lot of that, but sweep it all away: the thing that's left is empty, and it's full, and we can't kill it if we try.
Every time I listen to it I feel like on an emotional level I get it, but I struggle to put what he's saying here into any kind of words.
Bands that sound like AJJ plus Electric Guitar and drums?
Are there any? I really like the songs of AJJ, it sounds like the embodiment of old school American folk (i.e. Woody Guthrie, Phil Ochs) + punk, but I just can't find that kind of sound with the ripping acoustic guitar (or is it a banjo?) as well as the Electric Guitar and drums.
Grad School Stuff
Hey all! Deerfox here - I post shitty banjo covers sometimes.
I recently started grad school (five words that feel illegal and wrong, like what? How?), and I'm working on a master's in public health with a focus on safe-use facilities and harm reduction. I'm taking a class on drugs and society right now, and at the end of it, I'll have created a webinar on cPTSD, opioid addiction, and the folk punk music scene and community.
I am going through a really tumultuous time as of late, and our community's music has been helping me hold it together. I just started grad school before shit hit the fan, and now I've found myself linking all of my academic work to our community and the music that brings us together.
Question for my punk folks - would any of y'all watch an hour-long educational video? If so, what would you want to see?

Flyer I Made for Pigeon Pit’s San Diego Show
Sunday July 26, pull through if you’re in the area!! Ticket linked on my website www.tommi.diy
I’ve been getting into local bookings lately, San Diego needs more folk punk!!!
Making the flyer was pretty fun, also it gave me a good reason to get some bolt cutters. I wanted to make something with irl stuff. Kind of a statement of humanity, kind of a statement of the fact I can’t draw or do digital art very well :P
Willi Carlisle - Critterland LIVE
"This song was borne out of trying and failing to live on an intentional community in Stone County, Arkansas, a gorgeous place. At its simplest, it’s bucolic: the power of love is the power of nature, is the remedy of the granny-witch and the herbalist, the song of the sparrow and the pouch of the opossum." - WC
