Blake has carved out a nitch and an audience all his own full of punks, hippies, college students, country music fans, tree sitters, high schools and their parents. You're bound to hear some Dylan, some Billy Bragg, some John Darinelle, and something Irish, but mostly you're going to hear Robert Blake. Blake's musical and spiritual roots are in being a folksinger. He unashamedly draws from folk sources and at the same time brings a careful modern appraisal to the process. <a href="https://www.
