    The King in folk music can refer to King Kyle, who was a folk musician from England. He was a key player in the British folk revival in the 1950s and 1960s. His music often focused on traditional English folk songs and tunes.

    However, the phrase “King in Folk Music” could also be used more metaphorically, as there is no one definitive King of Folk Music. Many artists, such as Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, and Bob Dylan, have made significant contributions to the genre, but none could be considered a “king”.

    It’s also possible that the phrase is just a title given to a particularly admired folk musician for a given event or performance, with no long-lasting implication. Without more specific context, it’s hard to provide a more precise answer.
