YOK

Brothers Charlie and Mitchell named this duo after their father, the one who got them into music in the first place. Two acoustic guitars, plus effects and a looper, which is how bass, lead and percussion parts end up in a sound that should only have two pairs of hands in it. The result has more range than most duos manage. Yok can build a wall of sound that gets a room jumping, then strip it back to a sing-along a few minutes later. The set covers rock and pop from several decades: Mr Brightside, Riptide, Everlong, Dreams, Teenage Dirtbag, Seven Nation Army, Watermelon Sugar. Both have years of gigs behind them. The standard booking is three sets across three hours, and they bring lighting and PA.
