Friday 10 November 2023 2023

The passionate singer-songwriter Pokey LaFarge will be performing in the Grote Zaal on November 10th! Fusing the rustic sounds of the past with his own wry humor and roots music sensibilities, singer/songwriter Pokey LaFarge makes music influenced by old-time country, blues, folk, and Western swing.

Throughout his career, nine albums to date, the singer-songwriter has never been one to look back angry or disappointed. LaFarge was on tour when sudden changes in plans came about due to the pandemic, which he used to his advantage as a period of great personal growth. In this period he has not put down his pen and after a new album he is back on the road.

When Pokey LaFarge suddenly found himself in this crippling pandemic, it was no surprise that the songs immediately began to pour out of him. The singer-songwriter wanted to create a body of work that combined emotional lyrics with a killer groove and gripping melodies. ‘In the Blossom of Their Shade‘, his latest album, they show the positivity of coming out of the darkness and into the light. The album is the perfect soundtrack for a hot summer afternoon, the kind of music you want to listen to while having a cocktail with your significant other.
