Ze ontmoetten elkaar in het Engelse Peak District, op het folkfestival \"Skint\" en begonnen kort daarna samen professioneel op te treden. Hun muziek is gecentreerd rond de composities van Emily, geïnspireerd door ontmoetingen in het leven en de energie van de dansvloer.\n\nHun stijl is zeer expressief en improvisatorisch, vol passie, tederheid en speelsheid. Met een breed repertoire, variërend van verfijnde, sensuele mazurka's tot vrolijke, stuwende bourrées, vervoert hun muziek de verbeelding, beweegt de voeten en verheft de geest.\n\n \tPFM!\n\nPFM! is een energieke balfolkband uit het westen van het land. De band is in 2020 ontstaan en bestaat uit enthousiaste dansers die ook graag op het podium staan: Frans op klarinet, Maurits op viool en Pieter op gitaar. Het trio speelt onder andere rechttoe-rechtaan cercle’s, swingende scottishes en hoekige hanterdro’s, maar ook zachte smeuïge mazurka’s en een verstilde gavotte de ‘l Aven. Er worden voornamelijk eigen composities gespeeld met bijdragen van alle drie de bandleden. Het klinkt soms eigenwijs, maar altijd aanstekelijk en dansbaar!","links":["https://www.balfolk.nl/agenda/social-dance-in-mezrab-met-emily-the-simons-2/","https://www.facebook.com/events/580987764074788/"],"start":"2023-09-21T19:00:00+02:00","end":"2023-09-21T23:55:00+02:00","country":"Netherlands","city":"Amsterdam","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Emily & The Simons","PFM!"],"price":"€16-€18","organisation":"balfolk.nl","source":"events/netherlands/balfolk_nl_2023.yaml"},{"name":"Bal","links":["https://www.facebook.com/events/976950243600174/","https://www.bristolfolkhouse.co.uk/live-music/event/balfolk-bristol-presents-emily-the-simons-26-11-2023"],"start":"2023-11-26T19:00:00+00:00","end":"2023-11-26T23:00:00+00:00","country":"UK","city":"Bristol","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Emily & The Simons"],"price":"£11.50-£21.50","organisation":"BalFolk Bristol","source":"events/uk/bristol_balfolk.yaml"},{"name":"16è Nuit Du Trad","details":"Ball","links":["https://www.rzf.be/en_US/event/15e-nuit-du-trad-2024-04-13-2024-04-14-65/register","https://folkbalbende.be/event/1935","https://www.facebook.com/events/2642650492561322/","https://www.facebook.com/events/7378483705540041/"],"start":"2024-04-13T20:00:00+02:00","end":"2024-04-14T03:00:00+02:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Alleur","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["KV Express","La Machine","Grégory Jolivet","Julien Barbances","Emily & The Simons"],"price":"€20-€25","organisation":"Rif Zans L'Fiesse","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Album Launch Bal","links":["https://www.facebook.com/events/1236380387564359/","https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/balfolkoxford/album-launch-for-emily-and-the-simons-promise/e-mekgrp"],"start":"2024-10-27T15:45:00+00:00","end":"2024-10-27T20:00:00+00:00","country":"UK","city":"Oxford","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":true,"social":true,"bands":["Emily & The Simons"],"price":"£12","organisation":"Balfolk Oxford","source":"events/uk/oxford.yaml"},{"name":"Nieuwjaarsbal@herk","details":"Ball","links":["http://www.folkinlimburg.be/agenda/beschrijving.php?id=713","https://folkbalbende.be/event/2410"],"start":"2024-12-31T20:00:00+01:00","end":"2025-01-01T01:30:00+01:00","country":"Belgium","city":"Herk-de-Stad","styles":["balfolk"],"workshop":false,"social":true,"bands":["Naragonia","Kwintet Gestrikt","Emily & The Simons"],"price":"€24-€39","organisation":"Folk In Limburg","source":"events/belgium/folkbalbende.yaml"},{"name":"Bal Folk","details":"Emily and the Simons  Ausdrucksstark und improvisatorisch, voller Leidenschaft, Zärtlichkeit und Verspieltheit.
