Details: 7:30 PM $10 advance/$10 door THE CROOKED JADES FOUNDERS REUNITE Co-bill with Red Molly Jeff Kazor and Lisa Berman, founders of San Francisco-based folk revivalists The Crooked Jades, called the finest string band in America by The Boston Herald, reunite tonight for a special show with Erik Pearson (composer of the Crooked Jades tune featured by Sean Penn in his 2007 film “Into The Wild”) and brand new bass player Genessa Kealoha. On a mission to reinvent old-time music, bringing their soulful sound (brilliant arrangements of obscure old tunes mixed with hauntingly beautiful original compositions played on an eclectic array of vintage instruments) out of the bluegrass & folk ghettos to brand new audiences, with an old-time foundation they create a unique and original modern sound by exploring the roots of Americana and interweaving the diverse musical influences of Europe and Africa. With a live show lately described as Emmy Lou singing with Nick Cave, they were selected by prestigious UK folk magazine fRoots as one of 10 bands representing the best of Americana. Writes Bluegrasss Unlimited, “Chords in unexpected places, out of this world harmonies, and some of the most powerfully-arranged material I’ve ever encountered.” for more info kyrabaele@earthlink.net/415 290-2650 www.crookedjades.com www.myspace.com/crookedjades
