The Yarns
The Yarns are a three-piece indie/folk group from Leicester, In the East Midlands of the UK, who like to sing and sometimes dance to Irish jigs. They are fronted by Mr. John McManus (guitar, harmonica), with more than adequate support from Mr. Johnny Young (violin, guitar, bass) and Mr. Richard White (skins). They met a while ago – 2001 probably – all attending the educational establishment of St. Paul’s Comprehensive School, Leicester. 2003 came and they individually buggered off to far-flung locations: Sheffield, Leeds, Oxford, to read about Charles I and to further progress in musicalness.
