THE LIVING TRADITION MAGAZINE

Back in 1992, Pete and Heather Heywood and a team of traditional musical enthusiasts started a journey.  With a desire to help promote the many things that were happening in the traditional music world and to point people to the great music that was available, they founded The Living Tradition magazine.

For around 30 years, The Living Tradition was the authoritative voice for lovers of traditional folk music in the UK, Ireland and beyond.  It was a key source of information for enthusiasts all over the world.
