2008 Kerrville New Folk winner Hans York returns to Fresno. Hans & his band were compared to the early Pat Metheny Group or Sting but then again with an extra amount of intimacy like James Taylor, Paul McCartney or Nick Drake. Hans has roots in Germany, Brazil, and America. His vast musicianship and background, and the talent and bold musicianship of his band â"ÛYoung Ameliaâ"Ç create a warm unique sound that is fresh and unpredictable, yet it touches dear and familiar places deep in the Soul. Not surprising that his latest album ended up on the best of 2008 list of KFOGâ"Ùs Acoustic Sunrise DJ Rosalie Howarth

A consummmate musician, York travels between folk, jazz, and pop effortlessly while his voice soars above it all. Seeing him live, you understand that you are experiencing a world-class talent.-- Mike Marshall Listen to them on myspace or see and hear him on youtube . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6F2HEpYgV3w

Come early to party & potluck and meet with performers. Stay late and jam with local musicians. Bring chair or blanket, food & drink to share.
