Saro Lynch
Welcome to my channel! I produce videos that celebrate traditional song at the intersection of history, folkways and social justice. Old songs are fascinating and fun tools that help us understand historic cultural traditions, conflicts, religion, politics and psychology. Subscribe to watch me explore these topics in my Songs that Speak series, which posts monthly. If you want to learn the songs I feature, each episode comes with a companion video in which I teach the song using a simple "sing-and-repeat" method. Become my patron on Patreon if you want to help me publish more frequently (https://www.patreon.com/sarolynch)!
I'm based in Asheville, NC. Feel free to reach out on any social media platforms. You can send business emails to [email protected].
