SF: FIRST EVER MONTREUX BAND REUNION CONCERT

SF: FIRST EVER MONTREUX BAND REUNION CONCERT

Playing together for the first time in 20 years, the Montreux Band performs atYOSHI'S (510 Embarcadero West, Jack London Square, Oakland, CA - 510-238-9200) on Saturday, January 14th with sets at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. The band revisits the music that helped define Northern California in the 1980s. Darol Anger (violin), Barbara Higbie (piano), Mike Marshall (mandolin/guitar) and Michael Manring (fretless bass) were in their twenties when they created a new genre of music that rocketed from their Live at Montreux recording into heavy rotation on VH1, 10 recordings for Windham Hill Records, and 12 years of international touring. They are virtuoso instrumentalists and accomplished composers who have played with everyone from David Grisman and Stephan Grappelli to Santana and Bonnie Raitt. They have all gone on to successful solo careers. NVOH Artistic Director Peter Williams helped reunite the band for this historic concert. There is a $25 cover.
