Perhaps not yet a tradition, but certainly British and Folk...
... it so happens that yesterday I revisited this CD, which I purchased at a launch recital in Gateshead:
Kitty Whately - This Other Eden
Looking for a suitable link, I came across this rather enchanting launch video
The CD is equally enchanting and can be sampled here

I enjoyed the video, though what attracted my attention was mention of The Unthanks. Being once familiar with their music helped my enjoyment of their journey and I was delighted to see the context of one of their songs. Mind you, that old rallying cry 'Freedom of Speech' twisted and turned through the streets of the video, did it not?
