English Singer Patrick Wolf Plays Artful Baroque Pop, In-Studio

Soundcheck | Dec 1, 2025

English singer and multi-instrumentalist Patrick Wolf built his sizable reputation on a blend of Baroque pop and arty, classically-informed folk-rock. But a series of setbacks kept him from the music scene for a decade, before he returned with an EP in 2023, and in June of 2025, his latest LP called Crying The Neck. Patrick Wolf joins us at the piano, to play new songs, in-studio. 

Set list: 1. Enter the Day 2. The Last of England 3. Foreland
