Re: Searching Prog Folk Artists

If you like Iona, the first bands I would suggest is Mostly Autumn (1st period, albums "The Last Bright Light", "For All We Shared", "The Spirit Of Autumn Past", "Passengers", and the related lives, the second period is no folk at all, and I wonder if it's prog) and Karnataka.

Colin Masson also includes lots of folk elements, but sounds more like Mike Oldfield.

Anyways, the band you should try, even if non-prog, is the Waterboys.

Re: Searching Prog Folk Artists

In my opinion "This is The Sea" is a great album, but "Karma to Burn" (a live from 2005) is a CD that you should not miss. Amazing version of "Peace of Iona", an almost progressive rock song.

Ok, don't forget to tell me what you think about it when you'll have put an ear on it
