Those Folk

We were so lucky to have Those Folk perform at my wife's retirement party. We had invited a diverse group of her colleagues and family who's ages ranged from toddler to senior citizen. We had been concerned that the mix would not jive. However, from the moment Lawrence and Claire began to perform our guest became one cohesive group of JOY. Thier amazing musical talent dazzled everyone. I cannot count how many times I was approached with 'where did you find these guys?!" or "she sings like an angel". All night they read the party perfectly and adjusted to the crowd. Claire's clever banter with our guest was so warm and Lawrence even wrangled the whole crew for a group photo. There was nothing but raves every time they pulled out a new instrument or surprised us with another tune. We sang along and danced the evening away. Many of our friends are now following Those Folk on social and plan to see them again soon. We highly recommend Those Folk as the perfect complement to any soiree. Just writing this review has made me excited to see them again as soon as possible.

We had a backyard party and they were a great addition as a well, they are both super talented and I hope I can book them again! Loved the song choice, they read our crowd great.

I hosted Lawrence and Clare at my house for an intimate concert in October, 2017, and again in March of 2018.
( My introduction to them was in June of that year when they played for a crowd of around fifty.)
Despite their youth, Lawrence and Clare were exceedingly comfortable in front of an audience, and established a wonderful rapport with everyone in attendance.
They are multi-instrumentalists and have at least 90 minutes of original material.
We did a sing-along in October that went over really well, too. Their repertoire ranges from soulful spirituals to upbeat covers and even included a lesson in body percussion from Clare.
She has an effervescence that is contagious, along with an extraordinary vocal range.
Clare and Lawrence have wonderful chemistry between them, which conveys well to an audience.
They were self-contained, highly organized and professional, which enabled them to do a quick set-up with amplification suitable for my living room.
Many friends called it the “party of the year,” because of the intimacy and connection established with Lawrence and Clare.
I would absolutely give them my highest endorsement.

Lawrence and Clare were amazing!! They were very professional and pleasant and we were lucky they happened to be available on short notice. They even took the time to learn the songs I had requested for my first dance and father/daughter dance and played the songs live! It was even better than I had imagined them to sound. :) They played for hours and the songs they chose for their playlist were perfect music choices for a wedding. Couldn't be more pleased with their services. Thanks again you guys!

Lawrence and Clare played for our wedding in Idyllwild in the most serene forest setting. We requested them to learn 4 songs and they played them perfectly. They captured the essence of the songs while making them their own. Our favorite was the one they played for our first dance! During the planning stages they were incredibly professional, responsive, and lovely to communicate with. They provided us with an extensive list of songs they knew for us to choose from - all of which we loved. They even wrote us a sweet card wishing us well on our marriage. We can't recommend Lawrence and Clare enough - they have what it takes to play ANY event. We first saw them play at a restaurant in Idyllwild and immediately knew they were the duo we wanted to play on the most important day of our lives. My husband and I both feel they've gotten even better over the past two years - which we didn't think was possible :) They are just the sweetest!!
