The Young'uns: FolkEast in the City

***The Young’uns’ live shows are renowned roller coaster rides. With heart-on-the-sleeve storytelling, beautiful lyrics, warm harmonies and relentless repartee, Sean Cooney, Michael Hughes and David Eagle (the award-winning stand-up comedian) write and sing folk songs for today.***

FolkEast in the City brings a taste of the UK’s most easterly folk festival to London for an evening of music, storytelling, and community. Renowned for blending tradition with innovation, FolkEast has become a cornerstone of the folk calendar, and this event captures its spirit in miniature—warm, welcoming, and with a sprinkling of the unexpected.

Nearly twenty years after accidentally stumbling into the alien world of their local folk club as drunken teenagers, (and gaining their cureless name in the process) these three thirtysomething friends from Stockton and Hartlepool have never lost the joy of that first night of singing together. Whether performing at Glastonbury Festival, writing a song about pigs with a group of school children, or presenting a programme on Radio 4, **Sean Cooney**, **Michael Hughes** and **David Eagle** are just the same.

***This event will last approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes, including an interval.***

Presented by Kings Place.

This is a 14+ event.
