FOGHORN STRINGBAND, JEFF KAZOR & LISA BERMAN, ANNE & PETE SIBLEY

We kickoff the SF Bluegrass & Old-Time Festival with a great triple bill!
The internationally acclaimed Foghorn Stringband has been at the vanguard of a revival in American old-time music for over a decade now. They've traveled the globe, been signed to a major label, and inspired a new generation of old-time musicians, all without compromising their love of traditional American music.
Jeff Kazor founded his groundbreaking and internationally influential band The Crooked Jades in San Francisco in 1996, recording 7 albums and touring and playing festivals all over Europe and North America.
Multi instrumentalist/vocalist Lisa Berman is internationally known as a pioneer in bringing the Hawaiian slide guitar back to old-time music and redefining its sound. She also performs on claw-hammer banjo, dobro, guitar, harmonium, and baritone ukulele. Berman co-founded The Crooked Jades with Jeff Kazor, where her rare gift for harmony singing has been showcased and critically acclaimed as hauntingly beautiful and goosebump-raising. Berman also records and tours with the renowned Satirwell Sisters.
Originally from New England, Anne & Pete Sibley have been at home in the Rocky Mountain West since 1999. Less than a decade since they released their first album, the Sibleys' music hit the national spotlight in 2009 with a blue ribbon finish in the "Great American Duet Sing Off" on National Public Radio's A Prairie Home Companion.
