Last minute concert: The Young Folk + Jasper Schalks

Wednesday June 10th, first concert at 9PM

The Young Folk is perhaps as much a philosophy as it in name. Hardly a strict folk outfit, The Young Folk acknowledge their folky influences while asserting their own youthful personae with with a self-composed at-folk-pop and electric guitars, piano, bass, drums, mandolin, banjo. trombone, melodica, xylophone…

The Young Folk add their own generational-spin to the legacy of Irish folk-influenced music – a legacy that principal songwriter Anthony Furey knows only too well, being the son and nephew of members of the legendary Fureys. While this influence on the band’s music is evident, younger audience will also detect a youthful sound much more akin to The Young Folk’s contemporaries.

Jasper Schalks is a young Dutch singer-songwriter. He plays folk music with a touch of country.
