Join us for the inaugural of Studio Grand's Balkan Night, an evening of which features (not-so-strictly) Eastern European music. This new series will occur on the third Friday of the month, so mark your calendar! The night is graciously curated by Kent Kessinger and Jordan Haar.
ORCHESTRA EUPHONOS/////
Orchestra Euphonos is a Bay Area-based Eastern European folk and klezmer band. Their uplifting sound is characterized by a brass and woodwind melodic front line. Orchestra Euphonos performs songs and melodies from old world Bessarabia and the Balkans. Their performances are joyous occasions filled with wild takes on old favorites, group improvisations and more than a few opportunities to dance.
MOONSHINE JELLY/////
Power-house acoustic duo Moonshine Jelly consists of violinist and vocalist Lee White, and guitarist and filmmaker Kent Kessinger. This Americana-Celtic-Gypsy-Swing folk band adds contemporary context to ancient folk songs of Eastern Europe, the British Isles, and the Americas. With their intimate voices, unpredictable harmonies, and performance intensity, this up-and-coming band is not only reviving but transforming traditional musics of the world.
