And I had to look up her folk past with The Young Tradition - this is one of her songs, the semi-murder ballad Ratcliff Highway:
Her website is here:A. HEATHER WOOD (1945-2024). Publishing pro and folk singer A. Heather Wood died at Stony Brook Memorial Hospital on July 15 at the age of 79. At one time she was assistant to Tor’s President and Publisher Tom Doherty, and a consulting editor for Tor Books. She was also well-known in the folk music community as part of The Young Tradition, a 60s English group.
We applied a tiny bit of that musical talent on Noreascon Three’s (1989) program SF Tonight, where I played Ed McMahon to Tappan King’s Johnny Carson, and Heather Wood was our kazoo-playing answer to Doc Severinsen.
She also was known as part of World Fantasy Convention’s “Musical Interlude,” which featured pros singing in a folk revue.
