FIRST FIFTY - THE GREAT ESCAPE lands at Folklore on 12 November 2026 with Half Star joined by Tesni and Casual Smart. Tesni brings a detailed mix of chamber folk, contemporary folk and folk pop, rooted in a singer-songwriter approach that suits Folklore’s intimate scale. Cardiff group Casual Smart add further independent edge to the line-up, arriving in the wake of their 2024 single “it doesn’t get any easier” and a run of notable UK support slots. With CLASH curating the show, this gig places emerging folk-leaning songwriting and live energy in close conversation on a compact stage.
