Folk Alley Best of 2010 Listener Poll Results

January 4, 2011

Best of 2010 Stream.jpg For two weeks in December, we provided our listeners an opportunity to vote for their 10 most favorite CDs heard on Folk Alley in 2010. Since Folk Alley presents such a wide mix of folk, roots and Americana music that includes everything from traditional and contemporary singer songwriters, Celtic, bluegrass and newgrass, AAA, indie-folk, blues, World music and more...we were curious to see what our listeners would vote for as their favorites. Well the vote are in, and the top 10 vote-getters from Folk Alley listeners include the 2010 releases by:

  • Carolina Chocolate Drops,
  • Crooked Still,
  • Patty Griffin,
  • Natalie Merchant,
  • Red Horse (Gilkyson, Gorka & Kaplansky),
  • Mumford and Sons,
  • Andrew and Noah Van Norstrand,
  • Mary Chapin Carpenter,
  • Lonesome River Band, and
  • Jakob Dylan.
