Brass Menažeri is San Francisco's original & hottest Balkan Romani (“Gypsy”) Brass Band. Our music cascades through Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia, Greece & even Rajasthan with wild rhythms, new sensibilities, innovative arrangements & original compositions, expanding the traditions while we remain rooted within them.
Boston's Mr. Lif is one of the most forward-thinking MCs in Hip Hop. Tired of clichés, a culture in crisis, and a floundering economy, Lif stands apart, appealing to listeners looking for something beyond the consumerist egomania that has infested Hip Hop.
