Thread Name: Young Folkies Are Out There
Subject: RE: Young Folkies Are Out There
I agree with so many of the above comments. There are a stack of great young players, (too much emphasis on Irish?), not enough of their non-performing contemporaries, nor enough young singers esp male at clubs or sessions. My daughter (24 now) performs with other people her age, and when two attractive young ladies stand up and sing unaccompanies harmony it can stop a noisy pub. Great to see and hear, but I am biased. So perhaps they aren't 'young' any more, but a lot less years than most one sees around the clubs/sessions
