Collaborators included [Ian Brown](/source/Ian_Brown) from [Matthew Good Band](/source/Matthew_Good_Band) and Christian Thor-Valdson from Copyright.

===Reception===
''Folkyo'' received positive reviews, praising the album's musical intricacy and Manning's voice and writing,<ref name="theflagship"/> as well as its complex tones and clever lyrics.<ref name="partyinks"/>

According to a ''Toronto Quarterly'' article in 2012, "[Manning's] songwriting is sincere and superbly crafted, her finger-picking skills are unmatched and her voice is truly unmistakable with a timbre that reminds one of [Roy Forbes](/source/Roy_Forbes), [Joni Mitchell](/source/Joni_Mitchell) and [Dolly Parton](/source/Dolly_Parton) all at once."<ref name="torontoquartlery"/>
