The Young’uns may have established their fast-growing reputation in the folk world with sublime a cappella harmonies, but the Teesside trio – Sean Cooney, Michael Hughes and David Eagle – are an unlikely force of nature on stage, beguiling audiences with irrepressible humour, bold vocals, gripping storylines and innate musicality. Describing their gigs as “absolute chaos”, they go on stage without set-lists, relying on infallible instinct and their unique rapport with audiences to deliver a killer show.
As part of Crossing Borders, a new UK/Canada songwriter exchange project, BBC Radio 2 Folk Singer of the YearBella Hardy has paired up with Juno Award winning Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist Cara Luft for a genre-bending performance.
