The resulting medleys and improvisations are at once raw, funny, melancholic and foot stomping. “Suddenly, bluegrass comes in an array of colors.” — Rootsworld “Klezmer and bluegrass sound as if they were meant to be combined. Leverett & the Klezmer Mountain Boys have given us a wonderful gift.” — Dirty Linen Sat, Apr 21 8:00 PM $25.00 Member $28.00 Public $15.00 Student Please call the JCCSF Box Office for your tickets: 415-292-1233.
