A couple of months ago, Sherefe performed its first show at Full Cycle Café to a sold-out crowd, a jumpin’ dance floor, and an ecstatic dance vibe. Back by popular demand, Sherefe returns to the “Balkan Supper Club.” Sherefe’s evenings are richly joyous, lively, and great fun! Unlike anything you may experience in Boulder.
Sherefe’s tunes for this performance will run the gamut from Greek ballads and Zorba-style dances to Turkish grooves, from Arabic mawwals (laments) to upbeat tunes suitable for belly dancing. With some 15 years as the house band for the Boulder Greek Festival and innumerable parties for local Turkish and Arabic groups among its past performances, Sherefe is known for its instrumental virtuosity, vocal harmonies, and rhythmic skill at driving the dance.
Şerefe is named after a Turkish drinking toast that strictly means “to your honor”, but is used in the “what happens here stays here” sense. Our repertoire consists of large numbers of Greek, Turkish, and Arabic songs, as well as smaller numbers of Bulgarian, Macedonian, Bosnian, Rom, Albanian, Hebrew, Persian, and Armenian pieces.
Performing at this show are Jesse Manno (bouzouki, saz, oud, vocals), James Hoskins (cello, gudulka, bouzouki, zurna, vocals), Julie Lancaster (accordion, spoons, vocals), and Dexter Payne (clarinet, saxophone, ney), with guest drummer David Hinojosa.
