The premise is simple: four highly accomplished musicians, a dozen instruments and four voices coming together to put on a high-energy show of grooving, globally-influenced folk music that'll take your breath away.

The result is a show like no other.

After forming in Summer 2009, The UFQ have already toured extensively, released a studio album and official bootleg, played major festivals across Europe and picked up both The Spanish International Folk Prize 2009, in Plasencia and The Hancock Horizon award for best newcomer 2010.
