The San Francisco Yiddish Combo (SFYC) plays updated Klezmer music for the 21st century. The group was formed by accident when a love of Klezmer music collided with their collective backgrounds in every genre except Klezmer.
Now the SFYC is embarked on a journey around the world to present their own unique blend of everything that is Klezmer, mixed with years of experience in the jazz, blues, folk, and even hip hop world.
Made up of classically trained musicians who enjoy stretching musical boundaries, the SFYC is led by cellist Rebecca Roudman who has fronted groups all over the world bringing her virtuosic and fiery playing to stages from China to Italy and beyond.
Last month the SFYC played Hava Nagila on stage to music fans in Ashland, Oregon at the Ashland World Music Festival. Enjoy!
