IFAM Gathers the World’s Finest Folk Artists at Annual Market in Santa Fe

[ad_1]

IFAM reemerges at a new location in Santa Fe Railyard Park.

The International Folk Art Market is celebrating its 19th year and change is afoot. This year, the annual market is moving from its longtime home on Museum Hill to the Railyard Park. “The move has a lot to do with the artists,” says IFAM CEO Melissa Mann. “They have heard about Santa Fe — and they want to get out, walk around town and explore the city. The Railyard, in terms of its accessibility, is unique in Santa Fe. The location is walkable, there is a bike path, lots of parking and the Railrunner is going to drop people off from Albuquerque directly into the venue.”

July’s International Folk Art Market will be the largest group of global artists to participate in the market’s 19-year history. 168 artists from 52 countries and territories will converge in Santa Fe commencing on Wednesday, July 5, with the procession of artists at 7 pm at the Railyard Water Tower. The procession will be followed by a performance by SUPER VERZA, a Latin Cumbia band. The market, featuring extraordinary folk art from around the world, will be open to the public beginning Friday, July 7, through Sunday, July 9. Please refer to the following webpage for information on getting to this year’s market and buying tickets. 

The International Folk Art Market, a trusted resource for designers and art collectors, features several highlights this year. The IFAM Lecture Series: Identity is Handmade, consists of six panels and interactive workshops with IFAM artists, authors and advocates — all highlighting the vital importance of protecting cultural and artistic traditions. The lecture series takes place at SITE Santa Fe. For tickets and information, visit IFAM’s ticketing website. 

IFAM will host its second annual Night Market with a live performance by French-Creole blues rock band, Delgrés. Based in France, the band’s lyrics are mostly sung in Creole – and they tell stories, both lyrically and musically, that are informed by lead singer Pascal Danaë’s family history. Tumbleroot Brewery and Distillery will be the exclusive alcohol partner for Night Market. Read more about Delgrés.

Additionally, a robust performance schedule — presenting international musical acts on the market stage, and a haunted train ride with Japanese artist Junya Kono and Sky Railway — add unique interactive experiences that promise to delight visitors. The market is rounded out by international food offerings. For a complete performance schedule and food vendors, visit IFAM’s website.

SENSANE to Release Debut Vocal Album in October with UK and Indian Artists

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

SENSANE, a Derby producer and DJ, will launch his upcoming album on 22 October 2026 via AHK Global Records, his own record label, according to the announcement. The album combines prominent voices from Panjabi music, new talent from India, and UK artists, marking SENSANE’s debut appearance as a vocalist.

The album follows SENSANE’s long-running mix of Panjabi and Bhangra traditions with folk, hip-hop, R&B, garage and electronic production, a sound he’s built his name on as both a touring DJ and label head. AHK Global Records, which he founded, has previously put out Punjabi-facing projects, including a five-track EP with vocalist Kulvinder Johal that reportedly debuted at number six and was described by some as the first Punjabi album to reach that position on its chart.

"This album brings together the sounds and artists that have shaped me," SENSANE said in the announcement. "I wanted the album to honour the legends, give new voices a platform and show where I’m going next. Putting my own voice on a track is a big moment for me, and I can’t wait for people to hear it."

Details about the complete track listing, collaborators, and SENSANE’s vocal debut track will be revealed before the album drops, according to the statement.

Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching whether SENSANE’s own vocal debut changes how listeners place him: as a producer stepping forward, or as an artist who’s been building toward this the whole time.

From vault to vision: C’batch reimagines archive recording as ‘Our Little Pooh Pea (The Last Light) 4 – Cinematic’

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

C’batch has released “Our Little Pooh Pea (The Last Light) 4 – Cinematic,” an instrumental track built from a previously recorded guitar performance that the artist has reshaped into a new piece.

The release continues a pattern in C’batch’s work: revisiting prior work and reimagining it across multiple versions instead of viewing recordings as standalone pieces. Multiple outlets covering the release have noted that this approach — returning to older ideas and giving them new context — has become something of a signature, with this track functioning as the fourth installment under the “Our Little Pooh Pea (The Last Light)” title.

The piece is instrumental, with the guitar serving as the primary voice throughout the piece rather than functioning as one element among vocals or other lead instruments. Coverage of the release has described the guitar as the connective thread of the piece, tying its texture and tone together in a way multiple reviewers have called cinematic — the arrangement building mood and movement without lyrics to guide it.

Studio CarryOnHarry finds the more interesting story here isn’t the track itself but the method: a musician who views archived material as material for reinterpretation across multiple versions, and building a numbered series out of revisiting it.
