Cafe Musique Comes to Tehachapi

Central Coast-based band, Cafe Musique will perform at Fiddlers Crossing on Friday, July 18 at 7 p.m.

They may hail from the central coast of California, but the members of Café Musique have at least one foot each planted deep in foreign musical soil.

By merging four very different backgrounds, the quintet presents a rich mixture of styles including gypsy, tango, classical and folk. Combining powerful vocals with soaring violin and driving accordion, the listener will be treated to an exotic and exciting sonic journey around the world.

Camp Kiya attendees will recognize Brynn Albanese on violin and vocals. She is joined by Duane Inglish on Accordion, Fred Murray on Bass,Craig Nuttycomb, guitar and vocals. The band has recently added a percussionist as well who will join the group onstage for this show.
