This will be an event featuring folk music from all over the world held in the breath taking space of Congregation Sherith Israel in San Francisco. There will be four stages with over 30 acts. Balkan will be among one of those acts with Sarma Brass Band and La Zuli.
Sarma Brass Band is a collective of musicians from some of the top Balkan brass bands on the west coast. Playing traditional and original tunes inspired from the folk music from Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Turkey and beyond, the band gets the dance floor moving.
La Zuli combines the virtuosic talents of violinist Briana Di Mara and guitarist Anis Sehiri. The music they create is influenced by folk genres from Spain to North Africa to the Balkans and beyond. They use live looping to create many layers of unique sound. www.lazulimusic.com
