 On
Saturday 7th July we had a packed house at The Greystones' celebrated
Backroom for our Young Folk concert in support of FOEC. The
concert featured co-headliners Joe Banfi and Grace Petrie. Everyone
there agreed it was truly inspirational night, hugely enjoyed by all.
Joe and Grace are gifted young musicians with
distinctly different styles, both hurtling to the top of their
profession. Joe was joined on bass and vocals by Annie and Grace was
joined on percussion, harmonica and vocals by Caitlin. We can't thank
them enough for a fantastic evening of amazing music and celebration.
There was a stream of calls and texts all afternoon
requesting ticket reservations and a queue of people who turned up on
the night. Thank you to everyone who came along. We were delighted and
very proud to be able to put up a SOLD OUT sign just before the gig
began and, with a bit of squeezing in and making of new friends,
managed to get just about everyone into the room.
We must do it again! Certainly the response from the
audience was unanimous in its praise. Even the staff at The Greystones
remarked at how up for it everyone was.
Here are some pictures from Young Folk.
