The Sisters of Sheynville and Gaucho

Order tickets online now for The Sisters of Sheynville and Gaucho

West Coast Premiere

Inspired by the legendary Barry Sisters of the 1930s and 1940s, this all-female Swing-Klez sextet was voted Canada’s top folk vocal group in 2008. Their airtight three and four part vocal harmonies in Yiddish positively sizzle with seduction. You’ll think you’re in Paris when Gaucho opens with the Gypsy Swing sounds that recall legendary guitarist Django Reinhardt.

Presented in association with the Eugene & Elinor Friend Center for the Arts, JCCSF
Co-sponsored with the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life and Culture

JCCSF, 3200 California St., San Francisco

$18 students, $24 seniors/JCC East Bay & JCCSF members, $28 general
