> Hello to friends, family, and fans,
>
> Zoyres has been quite on the concert front of late, focusing on a new
> recording and personnel changes (our dear clarinetist Jon Russell has
> moved to Washington D.C.), but please mark your calendar for 2
> exciting November concerts, the first featuring a rare Bay Area
> performance with Jon Russell!
>
> Sunday November 1 8pm
> 2 sets at
> Anna's Jazz Island
> 2120 Allston Way in downtown Berkeley, CA
> $10
> If you haven’t been to Anna’s, you’re in for a treat. It’s one of the
> best music spots in the Bay Area. It’s comfortable, has great
> acoustics, and the audiences are there to listen. (and it’s also
> next-door to an incredibly resplendent salsa fresca bar at Cancun
> Taqueria – yum!)
>
> Then:
> Saturday November 14, 8-11pm
> 2 sets at Armando’s Jazz Club
> 707 Marina Vista, Martinez, CA
> Door charge is usually $8, 2 for $15.

> The name "Zoyres" derives from the Yiddish term for fermented
> vegetables, "zoyers." These foods have been transformed by culture and
> community (of the microbial sort) through incredible biochemical
> fermentation processes. These "cultural" transformations underlie our
> own cultural development, as humans have relied and reveled in
> fermented foods for millennia. Zoyres' music represents the geo-social
> analogue to the biochemical ferment. Our music, of Eastern European
> origin, brined in the contemporary cultural milieu, is akin to the
> pickle, still evident in its cucumbral origin, but with a taste and
> texture transformed.
