Description du concert
Flook take to the road in April and May 2019, launching their long-awaited new album, Ancora, with a 17-date tour around England and Wales.
The flutes of Brian Finnegan and Sarah Allen, the guitar of Ed Boyd and the bodhran of John Joe Kelly weave and spin traditionally rooted tunes into the the breathtaking sound of the groundbreaking band Flook. The band possesses a rare blend of fiery technical brilliance, delicate ensemble interaction and a bold, adventurous musical imagination.

Stunning skill and cohesion. Brilliant, largely self -penned tunes with elaborate structures and rythmns. Great band.

Biographie de Flook
‘Tour de force return after decade and a half – a luminous reunion ****’ - The Irish Times
‘Flook’s role and influence in the exploding excellence of instrumental folk music of various persuasions on these islands shouldn’t be underestimated… as vital as ever … Class is indeed permanent’ - fRoots
‘Nothing short of transcendent… No other band sound like Flook and the new material has pushed them to new, exhilarating heights.’ - Songlines
Due to overwhelming popular demand, Flook are back on the scene. After a recording hiatus of 14 years, Flook released their new album ‘Ancora’ in April 2019.
With the flutes and whistles of Brian Finnegan and Sarah Allen, the guitar of Ed Boyd and the bodhran of John Joe Kelly, this iconic band weaves and spins traditionally rooted tunes into an enthralling sound – with agile but tight rhythms and virtuoso improvisation. Flook possesses a rare blend of fiery technical brilliance, delicate ensemble interaction and a bold, adventurous musical imagination.
There is no shortage of virtuosity amongst the members of Flook, but the unique impact of this sensational Anglo-Irish group stems from the wholly intuitive, almost symbiotic, exchange between the various flutes, frets and skins. ‘Ancora’ marks a return after too long away, but also a continuation.
