The UFQ are quite simply remarkable. This vibrant international band produce music that draws heavily from celtic music and traditional song but embraces influence from funk grooves to afrobeat and Indian rhythms. They are all highly respected musicians in their own right, from Galician fiddler Paloma Trigas, fiery fiddler and showman Joe Broughton, masterful percussionist Tom Chapman, and the brilliant Dan Walsh on Banjo and guitar. They will entertain and delight …..this is a gig you won’t want to miss!
The Urban Folk Quartet
The Urban Folk Quartet play a unique fusion of folk and world music which, combined with funky rock grooves, guarantee a performance full of energy and humour. The West Midlands band consists of demon fiddle players Joe Broughton (Albion Band, Conservatoire Folk Ensemble) and Paloma Trigas (Carlos Nunez) with the irrepressible Dan Walsh (banjo, guitar) and storming rhythms from cajon player and percussionist Tom Chapman. The level of instrumental capability and infectious enthusiasm never fails to excite audiences everywhere. “Up there with the best of them. Amazing musicians.” – BBC Radio 2.
