Folk Alley is my favorite stream and my inspiration for my amateur but fun repertoire. Listening to FA, I've learned to play many songs that most people have never heard. Would like to be able to access the members stream in the app.

Used to listen to folk music every weekend on NPR with David Dye when we lived in OH years ago. There were 4 folk channels on satellite when we moved to PA, but they sadly are no more. Really have been enjoying finally having found another great folk music source!

Good app. Though, the notifications bar is white on white. Very difficult to read anything. The other problem that I see, is that the app keeps turning itself on opening up the app at least in my notification scroll down. It does not seem that I can turn the tap off. I will have to uninstall if I cannot get it fixed and if it uses too much power. Can't close the spoon notification menu or anywhere really. Uninstalling ????

This is absolutely perfect for me. Where else can I get my fix of new and old of this great genre along with knowledgeable and pleasant on-air hosts? I'm going over right now to contribute!

We used to go to the Florida Folk Festival in White Springs every year. Now we are retired and living Up North. We can not afford yearly folk festivals now. But Folk Alley gives us All Folk, All the Time. Thank you Folk Aley! / Chaz.

Having been a folkie all my 70+ years, I was ecstatic to discover Folk Alley online! They play oldtime, new folk, bluegrass, blues, Americana, British, World, you name it. Several different streams cover everything a folkie might want. Highly recommended & enjoyable!!

Give me a informed and creativity crafted soundtrack over algorithmic/Market-driven bs any day - and Folk Alley is the best of the best! Their app makes it easy to sample all of their tasty offerings. Better than generic radio app.
