Michael is all too modest, because, of course, it is "The Young'uns"!

From A Canadian perspective, check out "The Once", from Newfoundland.
They are on both Youtube and Facebook.

I would watch out for Blair Hutchings - Ashley's son, he's in a production of Lark Rise which is touring the UK from early September to December. I think Roger Wilson is in the band too.

The Jolly Boys are making a few waves in Jamaica now. Worth keeping an eye on I would have thought.

Wheeler Street for me also.
The oldest is only 21 so I take it that counts as young? I don't really know of many teenagers but I really like Maz O'Connor, who I think is about 18?

Kerfuffle - Sam Sweeney, Hannah James, Jamie Roberts & Tom Sweeney - They've given huge amounts of pleasure over the last 7 years and are calling it a day at Shrewsbury Festival this weekend. They are all still performing with other bands including Bellowhead, Fay Hield, Remnant Kings (Sam); Demon Barbers (Hannah) and Jamie Roberts & Katriona Gilmore (Jamie obviously)

Yeah, Guests aren't permitted to post multiple links....but I guess the block doesn't work if the sender name is blank. The block is intended to stop autoSpam messages that advertise online gambling and pharmaceuticals.

Joe, I just replied with no links..it wouldn't take it

GfS
    Try posting just the URLs when you're doing multiples. Some nice Mudelf will surely drop by and change them to links. Or....novel idea: register as a member!
    And yes, I really liked singer Jackie Evancho and pianist Emily Bear. Electric Guitarist MattRach was a little too ELO* for me; but I liked his acoustic piece.
    -Joe-

    *Is it Electric Light Orchestra I'm thinking of, or is it some other 1980s group that played classical pieces with rock instruments?
    ....oh, it's Emerson, Lake & Palmer.

Trying again....the last one got through....

By the way, how'd you like the links?

As far as pharmaceuticals, methinks some 'Catters could use them!..(Wink)

Joe, thanks for the info....now here's tryin' again....
