Each week, Matt will be showcasing a different project with various special guests.
Disastro Totale, (Yuri Lemeshev accordion and Matt Darriau reeds). The classic downtown duo of doom is back, but feeling a little more Brooklyn. These two polyglots are reuniting to Barbes.
Come check the Disastro after their multi year sabbatical - Yuri traveling the planet with Gogol Bordello and Matt's world of Klezmer to Paradox Trio. Their evolving musical life experiences have depended the duo...not mellowed it!
