Product Information

Paul also worked as a vocal tutor at St Edward’s school, Oxford, and in 2000 became a deputy lay clerk in Winchester Cathedral choir. As Boden explained in a BBC Radio 3 essay, [7] he views the prospect of a post-industrial world without gas or oil as sitting in harmony with the relevance of folk music and social singing.

Jobs go as Remnant Kings falls into administration

In 2010 he launched a project to record and deliver A Folk Song A Day [4] on line, aiming to inspire others to build a repertoire of songs and engage in social singing. Remnant King gigs were also notable for singing sessions organised after the show, either within the venues or at nearby pubs. This saw the band congregate around a table with various audience members, all singing folk songs unaccompanied. The idea was later developed with Bellowhead with the band engaging in regular after show sessions on their tours. Boden discussed the importance of these events in this key-note speech for the English Folk Expo in 2014. [8]

In contrast to his national touring, Paul was also deeply involved in community music-making. He led the Andover Museum Loft Singers, a community choir specialising in local folk songs, in Hampshire. There and in other smaller settings, such as the music and song workshops at the Halsway Manor folk centre in Somerset, his kindness, generosity and humour shone through.
