powershell concatenate string with output of get-childitem

I want to add a path string to all file names returned by get-childitem from a folder.

I have tried something like 

    Get-ChildItem  C:\path\folder |'different path' + {$}

I want to add a different path to all the file anmes returned from the folder. But it won't compile.

You mean something like this?

Get-ChildItem -Name C:\path\folder | foreach {"different path $_"}
