This beloved song carries a rich history: the actual Scarborough Fair was established by royal charter from King Henry III in 1253, while the traditional ballad itself stretches back hundreds of years, with versions known since at least the mid-17th century. In this arrangement, I blend the powerful tones of the Native American flute with guitar and percussion to create a fresh interpretation that honors the song’s deep ancestral origins while reflecting my own musical journey. Whether you grew up with Simon & Garfunkel’s iconic version or the older folk recordings, I hope this one speaks to you.
