(from their website)

“In Odesa, people find togetherness. In Odesa, all will laugh and sing.” Ukraine’s Kommuna Lux validates these words from an old poem, performing their own style called “Odesa Gangsta Folk:” thrilling klezmer music and common gangster folk songs from their hometown, all with a dose of rocket fuel.

Odesites have always been known for their great tolerance, easy-going lifestyle, and very special sense of humor. This multicultural port city is world-famous for its significant Jewish culture and for being the birthplace of the Urban Chanson genre. The streets are rich with nostalgia and a bohemian Black Sea coastal vibe. These are set to a timeless new level by the vibrant performances of the lovely singer Bagrat Tsurkan and his charming musicians. Kommuna Lux plays joyful songs and melodies from Odesa and all Eastern Europe in spiced up arrangements.

There will be dancing!

Drinks – cocktails, wine, and local beer – will be available for purchase.

All proceeds support the existence and programming at Congregation Beth Shalom – the Center for Jewish Life in the greater Modesto area.

Tickets are $25. $30 at the door. Senior and Student discounts are available.

Kids 12 and under are free.
