SUMMARY:Morley: Acoustic Global Journey to Sites of Soulful Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Thousand Miles\, Morley’s sixth studio album\, is the culmination of a global journey to sites of incredible resilience and tremendous trauma—from the United States\, Rwanda\, and Hiroshima\, to the open uranium mines at the Pine Ridge Reservation in the Black Hills—where human dignity\, love\, and resolve are expanding the frontiers of change\, justice\, and healing. The 13 songs resound with a layered serenade to the most elemental forces holding humanity together—friendship and love—and to the sanctity of the elements that bind us to the rest of nature—water\, air\, and soil.\n \nFEATURING:\nTBA\n \nABOUT THE ARTIST:\nMorley weaves the threads of jazz\, soul\, and folk traditions into a singular tapestry of vocal and acoustic splendor. Co-produced with Toshi Reagon and Ken Rich\, her new album\, Thousand Miles\, features celebrated musicians like drummer Brian Blade\, bassists James Genus and Will Lee\, pianists Jon Cowherd and Marc Cary\, along with special guests Toshi Reagon\, Richard Bona\, Joan Wasser of Joan As Policewoman\, Martha Redbone\, and Tiokasin Ghosthorse. Morley’s hope is that Thousand Miles will be part of the great map of art that reveals time and time again how short the distance from one another truly is.

SUMMARY:Invisible Bird: Endsley\, Devine & Amendola Trio
DESCRIPTION:Invisible Bird is a guitar\, trumpet\, and drum trio collectively led by three engaging artists from the Bay Area—Scott Amendola\, Shane Endsley\, and Dave Devine.

Invisible Bird also reinvents the classic repertoire from artists like Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell by integrating new hits from artists like Bruno Mars and Rihanna. To be released in the spring of 2018\, the group’s debut album\, Flutter to Fuzz\, features cameos from special guests Sam Amidon and Orenda Fink (Azure Ray). \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: 7:00pm doors / 7:30pm show\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:3 + 3: A Collaboration Between 3 Poets & 3 Musicians

She was nominated for a Pushcart Prize and was a contributing writer for Not On Our Watch: The Mission to End Genocide in Darfur and Beyond with Don Cheadle and John Prendergast. \nRaman Osman is a Kurdish composer and master tembûr (saz) musician from Al-Hasaka\, Syria. In his early age\, he was exposed to a variety of music and cultural sources like Kurdish\, Persian\, Arabic\, Turkish\, Armenian\, Assyrian\, and more. Osman has performed at a variety of venues\, including the Damascus Opera House\, several universities in Syria\, and throughout the Bay Area. \nMaw Shein Win‘s writing has appeared in many journals and several anthologies\, including MARY: A Journal of New Writing\, Cimarron Review\, and Poetry International.

With haunting vocals amid sensual beats\, Arula creates a cohesive yet dynamic spectrum of sound. Her music is a rich interplay of her many influences; her sultry vocals and downtempo melodies take and hold shape as they blend with global music rhythms and become ancestral and grounded while dancing over trap and hip-hop beats. \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: 7:00pm doors / 7:30pm show\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:Teslim: The 7 Decades Project
DESCRIPTION:Teslim (tes-LEEM) consists of three composers—violinist Kaila Flexer\, multi-instrumental string wizard Gari Hegedus\, and Elana Brutman on Cretan lyra with sympathetic strings—who share a common love of modal music from Turkey and Greece. Joined by percussionist Joshua Mellinger\, the group presents the 7 Decades Project\, which features original compositions by Flexer in honor of her parents\, Abe and Bobbie. \nFlexer’s parents met when they were just 11 years old. Now 83\, the two have been together for over seven decades and continue to be madly in love. Over the years\, Flexer has written many compositions for birthdays and anniversaries\, and more recently pieces about Bobbie’s diagnosis (two years ago) and treatment of Grey Zone Lymphoma. Bobbie has been doing very well for the past year on an experimental drug. Flexer has been honing these pieces and collaboratively arranging them with the ensemble\, and they are thrilled to be sharing these compositions\, as well as works by Brutman and Hegedus.\n \nFEATURING:\nKaila Flexer – violin\, tarhui\nGari Hegedus – oud\, mandocello\, saz\, tarhu\nElana Brutman – Cretan lyra with sympathetic strings\nJosh Mellinger – percussion\n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nKaila Flexer is a violinist\, composer\, music educator\, teacher\, producer\, mother\, and plant lover. She has recorded three albums with her groups Third Ear\, Next Village\, and Teslim. Between 1989 and 2013\, Flexer founded and produced Jewish music events Klezmer Mania! and Pomegranates & Figs: A Feast of Jewish Music\, as well as smaller music events. Over the years\, she has performed with various groups including Club Foot Orchestra and Kitka\, as well as with artists such as Shira Kammen\, Ross Daly\, Kelly Thoma\, Hamed Nikpay\, and Hollis Taylor. Flexer can be found teaching and composing in her Oakland studio. \nGari Hegedus plays violin\, viola\, and a variety of lutes from Greece and Turkey\, including laouto\, oud\, and saz. Along with playing in Teslim\, he also performs with global music group Stellamara\, as well as Bay Area groups Janam and The Helladelics. Hegedus has studied with oud master Naseer Shamma and has studied\, recorded\, and performed with Ross Daly and Kelly Thoma. He has toured with the Mevlevi Dervish Order of America and continues to participate in Turkish ceremonial and devotional gatherings around the country. In addition to being a composer and performer\, Hegedus is a talented luthier\, repairing stringed instruments of every variety; coaxing sound from sazes\, violins\, and rebabs; restoring lutes and lyras; making bows; and finding ingenious ways to allow the true voice of an instrument to come forth. \nElana Brutman has dedicated the last several years of her life to the intensive study of the lyra with sympathetic strings\, an instrument which is based on the Cretan lyra and incorporates elements of the Byzantine lyra and Indian sarangi. She has spent the last five summers traveling to Greece to study at Labyrinth\, Ross Daly’s center for modal music instruction and practice\, where she studied with Kelly Thoma and many other master musicians from Greece\, Turkey\, and Iran. \n  \n \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: 7:00pm doors / 7:30pm show\nAdmission: $20-25 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:Darren Johnston and The Pipes ft. Allison Lovejoy: New Chamber-Folk with a Jazz Reduction
DESCRIPTION:Bay Area trumpeter/composer Darren Johnston’s newest project for showcasing his songwriting features the distinct instrumentation of two bass clarinets—played by powerhouse composers/improvisers/bandleaders Steven Lugerner and Cory Wright—along with Johnston on trumpet and vocals\, as The Pipes. From short and sweet\, quirky\, groove-based songs to more expansive open improvisations\, they’ve created a new recipe for experimental chamber-folk with a jazz reduction\, telling stories of love and loss\, war and peace\, and how fleeting everyday moments can contain a universe of poetry and the sublime.

As it becomes clear they’re in a detainment camp for migrant children\, the stakes of the game grow far higher than anyone suspected they would. Rules of the Game is a one-act play with music performed by students from the Ruth Asawa School of the Arts who are doing this play to raise awareness about the detention of migrant children and\, where possible\, to raise funds for non-governmental organizations working to help these children. We are trying to use art to promote ethical actions in response to a bad situation. \nOzden Oztoprak and Isik Berfin\, a mother-daughter duo from Turkey’s Zaza-Alevi community\, have a distinct Zaza repertoire of songs stemming from a Sufi spiritual tradition. Rumen “Sali” Shopov is a master Turkish-Romani drummer\, singer\, and string player from Gotse Delchev\, Bulgaria.

SUMMARY:Jessica Fichot: French Chanson & Shanghai Jazz
DESCRIPTION:Accompanied by her accordion\, toy piano\, and fiery band\, Los Angeles-based chanteuse and songwriter Jessica Fichot draws from her multi-ethnic French\, Chinese\, and American heritage to create an intoxicating multilingual amalgamation of French chanson\, 1940s Shanghai jazz\, swing\, and international folk.\n \nFEATURING:\nJessica Fichot – vocals\, accordion\, toy piano\nIppei Ichimaru – upright bass\nMike Bjella – clarinet\, saxophone\n \nABOUT THE ARTIST:\nWith three acclaimed albums under her belt—Le Chemin\, Le Secret\, and Dear Shanghai—Jessica Fichot has brought her music to audiences around the world\, regularly performing in China\, Mexico\, Canada\, and across the U.S and western Europe. Backed by a group of talented musicians and singing in French\, Mandarin Chinese\, Spanish\, and English\, Fichot can switch with ease from a lively French chanson to a moving Mexican classic or a jazzy Shanghai gem. The group performs styles that are varied but are always united by Fichot’s gorgeous\, expressive singing voice. An active composer\, she has written hundreds of children’s songs for various educational programs\, and she also composes interactive music for indie video games. Her original songs have been featured in movies\, TV shows\, and commercials.
