Description

Black Olive Babes offers an eclectic mix of Balkan, Romani, Sephardic and American roots music. The sultry rhythms and soul-stirring melodies create a dance- and trance-inducing groove that carries you from the shores of the Black Sea to the foothills of the Appalachians. Founded by twenty-year Kitka Women’s Vocal Ensemble veteran Juliana Graffagna, Black Olive Babes features some of the Bay Area’s most innovative interpreters of Southern Balkan and Middle Eastern traditional music. The group’s collective experience includes national and international touring, membership in Bay Area super groups Brass Menazeri, The Toids, Edessa, Stellamara, and Gamelan X, and performances with the likes of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares, and Madonna. Tonight’s performance promises to be an intimate, colorful, richly soulful, and nearly acoustic experience!
