Fanfare Samenakoa

***CORRECTIONS***
Samenakoa is NOT playing at Zebulon due to a fire at the club. They are instead playing at Drom for Frank London's birthday party, which is on the 7th, not the 11th (though they're playing at Drom on the 11th as well). Anyways, the schedule below should be right on now, so just go see them!
**********************

Samenakoa is an 11-piece fanfare from Marseilles, Fraunce (audio clips here). They're going to be in NYC until Tuesday the 13th and they'll be pretty busy while they're here, so make sure you check them out along the way.

  • Weds. 5/7, Drom, 85 Ave. A, Manhattan, (Frank London's 50th b-day party, w/ Klezmer Brass All-Stars, Maracatu NY & others)
  • Fri. 5/9, 8p: Jalopy, 15 Columbia Street, Red Hook, Brooklyn, with Veveritse
  • Sat. 5/10, 11p: Barbes, 376 9th St. (@6th Ave.), Park Slope, Brooklyn (the extraordinary Mamie Minch will be playing at 8, so if you can make both, your time will be well spent)
  • Sun. 5/11, Drom, 85 Ave. A, Manhattan
They will no doubt be popping up in other random places as well, so stay tuned.
