Folk Song America vs WJVS Utilisation & Stats

Mid-Century Modern Music makes apps that allow you to discover, or rediscover, music from the Mid-Century Modern era. There’s a lot of classic folk albums available in Apple Music. So many that we were able to almost fully recreate the six album boxed set of albums put out by Grammy-nominated folklorist Norm Cohen in 1990, called "Folk Song America". This boxed set contained one hundred songs, and we've got them all. Each one annotated with information from Norm like; why they're important, how they came to be, where they came from, and who else covered them. Often this information includes links to other songs and albums, also included in the app. An "Artists" section in the app, includes all the artists that sang on these important songs. And for each artist we've found more albums that you can listen to, biographical information, links to podcasts about the artists, and even links to Apple Books by or about the artists; some with sheet music so you can learn the songs yourself. In total the app includes: Over 1,000 albums that you can listen to. - Sound like too many? Pete Seeger contributes 70 of those by himself! 94 artists pages with biographical information, as well as more songs, and albums to listen to. Links to 27 podcasts - Either about the artists, or featuring interviews with them. All of these free. Links to 84 Apple Books - Either about or by the artists featured in the app. Some are sheet music for piano and guitar. All available for purchase through Apple Books. Now for the best news of all. The app is free. But there’s a catch. What? You need an Apple Music subscription to play this music. So, if you have an Apple Music subscription already, you’re all set. The app is 100% free to you. If you don’t have an Apple Music subscription yet, no problem. Inside the app, we'll launch Apple Music so you can get signed up, and if you’ve never signed up before, there’s a free trial period.
