The Ian Campbell Folk Group

The Ian Campbell Folk Group was a British folk band led by Ian Campbell that formed in 1956 and remained active until 1978. They performed acoustic arrangements of traditional British and American folk material and included topical and political songs in their repertoire, often delivered with close harmony singing and ensemble playing. The group was part of the postwar British folk revival and regularly appeared in folk clubs and festivals, contributing to the era's grassroots folk scene.
