Description
Tonight Red Poppy resident artists The Nice Guy Trio showcase the second installment of their “Nice Guys + 1 Series”! This series will feature the playing and compositions of a different guest artist (or artists) alongside the trio each month. Tonight’s very special guests are Meklit Hadero and Smith Dobson! The Nice Guy Trio is Darren Johnston on trumpet, Rob Reich on accordion, and Daniel Fabricant on bass. Together they create a sound that is both intimate and reflective of their contrasting yet complimentary musical backgrounds—and always with an emphasis on spontaneity. Their performances navigate a diverse collection of original compositions and songs from folk traditions across the globe—from jazz and klezmer to Balkan dance forms, calypso and beyond.Meklit Hadero is a singer, musician, arts organizer and Director & Resident Artist at the Red Poppy Art House. The San Francisco Chronicle calls her, "stunning."
