Betsy Rose, Will Fudeman,
& Gerry Tenney in a Benefit Concert for Dennis J. Kucinich on Abe Lincoln’s Birthday 7:30 pm Thursday, February 12, 2004 La Pena Cultural Center 3105 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley Join fans of progressive music and politics on the birthday of Abraham Lincoln, the first member of the House to be elected president, as we support progressive Democrat Dennis J. Kucinich in his bid to become the next. Like Lincoln, Kucinich speaks out for civil rights, and his platform also emphasizes peace and universal health coverage. With warmth and wit, Betsy Rose sings about peace and justice. Having toured worldwide and inspired artists such as Pete Seeger and Ronnie Gilbert to record her songs, she brings her music home to the Bay Area and Kucinich supporters. Will Fudeman returns to the Bay Area from Ithaca, New York, where he played klezmer with the late, great Fred Koslov, and the Cayuga Klezmer Revival, and he currently plays original songs with Susan Lytle. Gerry Tenney has long been a pillar of the Bay Area Yiddish and klezmer communities, and audiences can’t sit still when he plays. The evening with these three musicians, friends, and Kucinich supporters promises to be a foot-stomping, heart-warming good time. Tickets are available for $15 in advance or at the door. For tickets: 415-927-2004 ext. 80, eb.events@kucinich.us |
