Rupa Marya with Pawel
Walerowski
Rupa--the front-woman and composer for rising global pop band
Rupa & the April Fishes--will be playing a unique intimate performance in
duo with Polish cellist Pawel Walerowksi at Mud Puddle Coffee, September 7th.
Rupa's debut album eXtraOrdinary renditionhas hit the top of iTunes
world music charts several times since its international release April 2008. The
band has toured extensively this summer in support of their album--playing 9
countries in Europe, the Montreal Jazz Festival, Central Park Summer Stage and
the epic Outside Lands Festival in their hometown of San Francisco.
The band will be on tour in the Northwest in early September
(playing the Triple Door September 4th) and Rupa will be taking an extra day on
the tour to play her compositions in a stripped down format with guitar, voice
and cello. Her music is a bridge between cultures--mixing sounds from France,
India, Latin America and the US. The result is a mosaic of styles, creating a
richly diverse songwriting. She has been featured on the cover the SF Bay
Guardian as pioneering a new kind of songwriting, on the BBC's World Service, on
NPR (All Songs Considered, The Story, PRI's The World). Her music is at once
rousing and intimate, playful and full of depth. Rupa spends half of her time in
the hospital as a professor of medicine at the University of California, San
Francisco and half her time on the road with her colorful band.
This Bainbridge Island show will be a unique opportunity to
hear her compositions more intimately and some exciting interpretations of
others with acclaimed cellist Pawel Walerowski. See:

Geoff Kaufman, one of today's great voices in

the folk scene." His music of the sea has been honed over the last
twenty-four years during his employment at Mystic Seaport as a chanteyman,
Foreman of Interpretive Music Programs and Director of the annual Sea Music
Festival. Songs of the sea, songs of the earth, songs of the heart and the
spirit - all of these are in Geoff Kaufman's ditty bag. For more

a "fleet" of acoustic instruments, including fiddle, bodhran, guitar, mandola,
tin whistles, harmonicas and banjo. For more information:
