I love me some good folk. Especially when played (live) in bars. Folk is fun and lively.
The Pogues (punk folk?) are in my top 50 scrobbled artists. Rum Sodomy & The Lash, of course. There’s few other Irish bands with a folky sound ranked in the next 150 as well.
I have never been overly into folk music - I think I was damaged by it as a child, going to concerts where people played sticks with bottlecaps nailed to them as rattles.... :D
