The New Folklore: Lyrical Tales for Dreamers & Thinkers is a collection of seven stories written by musician Teague Alexy and beautifully illustrated by artists from across the country: "The Wisdom of King Joe Colli," "Old Lady Truth," "The New Tune of Elijah Swoon," "Three Little Fish," "How Lefty Stepanovich Turned Water Into Wine," "Teufelo's Tongue" and "Old Rickety Bridge." Alexy's modern folktales are told in the tradition of being nonsensical on the surface with strong underlying truths. Filled with humor, lively characters, clever rhyme schemes and wordplay, The New Folklore provides entertainment and deep insight for young and old. Information on musical versions of these stories performed by Teague Alexy & The Feelin Band (featuring Nicholas David) and information on Teague's band Hobo Nephews of Uncle Frank is available atteaguealexy.com.
