Manchester
Jennifer Reid
Kicking off an exploration of northern folk in the Portico Collection, acclaimed musician and researcher Jennifer Reid sings some ballads.
The working classes made music as a provocation and this is a tradition that Jennifer Reid continues, performing 19th Century Lancashire dialect work songs, Manchester broadside ballads and clog steps.
Jennifer played Barb in Shane Meadows’ critically acclaimed period drama The Gallows Pole on the BBC and has recently supported Pulp and John Cooper Clarke, latterly for Chanel’s prestigious Metiers d’Art show.
She works across academia, folk performance, heritage consultation and media to bring industrial history back to the people.
