SUMMARY:Levoná Ensemble: Music & Stories from Around the World
DESCRIPTION:Levoná Ensemble combines flamenco\, Arab\, Jewish\, and other musical traditions and weaves them together with stories\, both ancient and new.

Love Sick went on to receive the prestigious Glickman Award for Best New Play in 2018\, and audiences and critics alike praised its vibrant music as the heart of the play’s energy and wide appeal. Levoná has since continued to perform as an independent group\, keeping that same energy alive in both dance and concert halls. \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: Doors 7:00PM / Show 7:30PM\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:Portrait Maker + Girl Swallows Nightingale: Chamber Music for Improvisers
DESCRIPTION:Roger Kim’s Portrait Maker is a new kind of chamber music that combines elements of jazz\, classical\, and folk music in a highly personal and organic way. Writing for plucked and bowed string instruments\, woodwinds\, flute\, voices\, and sparse percussion and piano\, the young guitarist makes his mark as a promising composer with a wonderful sense for unusual orchestration and timbres\, musical economy\, harmonic richness\, melodic beauty\, and improvisational creativity. Girl Swallows Nightingale opens the night\, taking the audience on a cinematic journey.\n \nFEATURING:\nPortrait Maker\nRoger Kim – guitar\, banjo\nRyan Pate – guitar\nMarica Petrey – vocals\nAndrea Wang – vocals\nDebbie Gold – flute\nJason Gillenwater – clarinet\nKyle Beard – bass clarinet \nGirl Swallows Nightingale\nMarica Petrey – vocals\nAndrea Wang – vocals\, piano\n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nRoger Kim is a guitarist and composer whose work investigates the intersections of rhythm\, harmony\, orchestration\, improvisation\, and the juxtaposition of various disciplines including music\, dance\, and visual media. He has presented work all over the San Francisco Bay Area\, including at the New Frequencies Festival at YBCA and with the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players Ensemble. He studied with Myra Melford at UC Berkeley and is currently working on an MFA in music performance and composition at the California Institute of the Arts. \nGirl Swallows Nightingale hatched in 2016 when Marica Petrey accidentally wrote too much music for a fantasy film she was making and decided that it was the perfect excuse to start a new band. With songwriting inspired by folklore\, anime\, science fiction\, and epic saga\, Girl Swallows Nightingale conjures a cinematic experience\, painting a vivid musical canvas that shifts its colors between modern rock\, jazz\, theater\, funk\, and pop\, to underwater soundscapes and dreams of outer space. Petrey delivers dramatic yet playful vocals and is supported by a multi-talented ensemble of musicians\, who can be found not only on stage with a number of other bands and orchestras\, but also at work all over the Bay Area in the realms of theater\, film\, video games\, and radio. \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: Doors 7:00PM / Show 7:30PM\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.

SUMMARY:¡Aquí no hay moscas!: Artist Reception w/ Santiago Insignares
DESCRIPTION:The Red Poppy Art House invites you to join the artist and curator behind its next exhibition\, ¡Aquí no hay moscas! (‘There Are No Flies here!’)\, on view until May 14th. In this installation\, artist Santiago Insignares uses the metaphor of an incessant swarm of flies by making a direct\, visual translation of his frustration with the current technology-driven age. The buzz of the flies and the buzz of a smartphone are brought together by a nostalgic memory\, inviting the audience to question the relevance of the symbiotic relationship they have with their phones and what measures should be taken to make this relationship healthier and sustainable.\n \nABOUT THE ARTIST:\nSantiago Insignares (b. 1986\, Troy\, New York) is a Colombian artist based in San Francisco\, California. He received an MFA at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2015 and a BFA in Illustration and Animation from the European Institute of Design of Rome in 2009. His work has been shown throughout Bogotá at Casa Cuadrada\, The Bogotá Art Fair Emerging Artists Pavilion\, La Residencia Gallery\, as well as in San Francisco at Noroof Gallery\, Adobe Books Backroom\, The Growlery\, and the California Academy of Sciences. His work addresses our relationship with memory\, considering themes like trauma\, nostalgia\, social memory\, and their importance in identity creation.\n \nABOUT THE CURATOR:\nElena Mencarelli moved to San Francisco after concluding her master’s degree in visual arts at the University of Bologna\, Italy. Previously\, she was the artistic director of the Make Your Mark Art Gallery in Melbourne\, Australia. In addition to her artistic practice and curatorial background\, she is also engaged in art criticism. Elena is the co-writer of the catalogue of the double exhibition Maria Rebecca Ballestra – Alan Sonfist\, a better landscape (Unimedia Modern Contemporary Art\, Genova\, Italy) and is the author of Maria Rebecca Ballestra\, a phenomenology of posthumanism\, soon to be published in both Italian and English.\n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: Event 6:30PM\nAdmission: Free \nRSVP to the Facebook event:\n \n \n  \nVolunteer for this event!\n\n

SUMMARY:Luminance Ensemble: Harp\, Trumpet & Bass Explorations
DESCRIPTION:Harpist Amelia Romano\, along with trumpeter Matt Ebisuzaki and bassist Tim Renner\, present an evening of original compositions and arrangements. With influences ranging from South American harp\, symphonic brass\, and odd-meter dance music\, to minimalism\, post-bebop\, and spaghetti western soundtracks\, this intrepid trio finds a song-line under San Francisco’s Mission District and tracks it to the Red Poppy Art House.\n \nFEATURING:\nAmelia Romano – harp\nMatt Ebisuzaki – C rotary-valve trumpet\nTim Renner – upright bass\n \nABOUT THE ARTIST:\nLuminance Ensemble is a musical group from San Francisco. Their music is an original blend of styles drawing from concert and folk traditions. It begins with the electric lever harp of Amelia Romano\, whose playing is rhythmic and dynamic.

SUMMARY:Brother Spellbinder / Wolf & Crow: Cinematic Folk Cabaret
DESCRIPTION:Brother Spellbinder blends elements of folk\, chamber pop\, and global music through original songs that are both melodic and theatrical. With Instrumentation that includes cello\, ukulele\, violin\, guitar\, and three-part harmonies\, their performance also features multimedia with live-projected handmade film collages and the release of a new music video.   \nWolf & Crow then interweaves sweetly chilling harmonies\, woody folk-guitar picking\, and their trademark rustic slide guitar to form a haunting and beautiful American-Primitive landscape. They’ve branded their sound as “cinematic folk” for its western film-score instrumentation and sweetly vivid lyrical narrative.\n \nFEATURING:\nBrother Spellbinder\nAlzara Getz – vocals\, ukulele\, harmonica\nJamie Wilson – guitar\, vocals\nHelena Tietze – cello\, vocals\nZoe Atlas – violin\nSean Griffin – electric guitar\nSteve La Porta – drums \nWolf & Crow\nMathieu Stemmelen – guitar\, vocals\nZachary Vieira – guitar\, vocals\nOscar Westesson – upright bass\nShawn Lozan – drums \n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nWith beautiful arrangements and a touch of spontaneous magic\, Brother Spellbinder creates songs that are melodic\, dreamy\, and passionate. After years of performing with Bay Area bands\, Alzara Getz formed Brother Spellbinder with guitarist Jamie Wilson\, an early graduate from San Francisco’s School of the Arts High School. Getz’s dulcet voice and lilting ukulele counter Wilson’s dollop of gravel and earthy guitar. Helena Tietze adds a velvet cello\, angelic harmonies\, and alternating lead vocals. Lead guitarist Sean Griffin plays ethereal and sensual riffs\, and drummer Steve La Porta steers the songs with groovy rhythms and toe-tapping marches. Brother Spellbinder aims to enchant in the age of disenchantment. \nLearn more: Facebook | YouTube\n \nZachary Vieira and Mathieu Stemmelen share an obsession for musicology\, film\, history\, and design\, all of which guide their creative process. With the inception of Wolf & Crow in 2009\, the duo sought to craft a fully immersive world. They began by developing a fictional narrative with characters whose stories paralleled their true life experiences. Vieira’s lyrical themes range from troubling visions to historical fiction to abstractedly spiritual epiphanies. He explains\, “The presence of allegory within Wolf & Crow and its music derives from our belief that there are forces of both good and evil in this world. The former seems most potent in the things that are also the most vulnerable. We feel it is our purpose to find the beauty among all that feels hateful and violent and ugly and to allow it to echo through us in all that we create. Even if it is tragic\, we want it to be devastatingly beautiful.” \nLearn more: Facebook | Bandcamp | YouTube \n  \n \n \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: Doors 7:00PM / Show 7:30PM\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.\nPurchase advance tickets for this event:\n*Advance tickets for this performance are SOLD OUT.

SUMMARY:Alex Hand Band / Three For Silver: Balkan Folk-Jazz Meets Apocalyptic Folk Noir
DESCRIPTION:A staple in the Bay Area Balkan and gypsy swing scenes in recent years\, Alex Hand’s current project explores the common ground of influence between western art music and jazz with folk music of Eastern Europe.

Recorded from a dank basement to a cloud-capped stone observatory\, from a silent river home to an empty piano warehouse\, The Way We Burn marks a new generation in album production and a band of people that is more than just one sound or one style.\n \nFEATURING:\nAlex Hand Band\nLewis Patzner – cello\nIsaac Schwartz – drums\nAlex Hand – guitar \nThree For Silver\nLucas Warford – vocals\, resonator bass\, banjo bass\, contrabasin\nWillo Sertain – vocals\, accordion\nGreg Allison – vocals\, violin\, mandolin\n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS:\nAlex Hand graduated from the University of Nevada\, Reno in 2011 with a degree in jazz guitar performance. He studied Balkan folk music in Bulgaria in 2015 and has been playing and teaching in the San Francisco area for four years. \nLearn more: Bandcamp\n \nThree For Silver is post-collapse\, post-folk\, post-everything. A freewheeling collective of folk musicians in which the only rule is to survive and perform\, the band is as likely to be found in a grand theater performing for foreign dignitaries as busking on your street corner for spare change. Three For Silver has hit the road non-stop since its formation in 2013\, playing over 200 shows a year\, and has gained an international following with an unmistakable evolution of roots music. \nLearn more: Facebook | YouTube | SoundCloud\nPhoto by: James Rexroad \n  \nEVENT DETAILS\n \nTime: Doors 7:00PM / Show 7:30PM\nAdmission: $15-20 sliding scale.
