Concert: Yan Yates (UK)

Date and time: 
07/14/2011 19:30

Thursday, July 14, 19:30-21:00 Concert: Yan Yates (UK). Yan Yates hails form small town in Northern England, beset with a dying mining industry. And that's why Teesside native Yan Yates took the plunge and took his acoustic singer-songwritery far down south, to London. He wasn't going to get too far in a mining town with a name like that. Yates has busked his ‘nu-folk' all over the world - indeed for a while there he was in New Zealand fronting The Stouts, something he did for no less than two years - and has played in prestigious venues all over London and the UK. A prolific writer and performer, the unsigned troubadour cites influences as Nick Drake, Townes Van Zandt and The Band, the obviousness of which ensures his is not a sound you won't have heard before, but it's pretty special anyway. http://www.myspace.com/yanyates. at Treehugger Dan's Bookstore & Lounge, Lazar u. 16
