Klezmer meets Bluegrass!

Klezmer clarinetist Margot Leverett takes genres literally worlds apart and finds their uniting spirit. Appalachian and southern fiddle tunes by Bill Monroe meet klezmer melodies from pre-war Russia and Eastern Europe. The resulting medleys and improvisations are at once raw, funny, melancholic and foot stomping.

“Suddenly, bluegrass comes in an array of colors.”
— Rootsworld

“Klezmer and bluegrass sound as if they were meant to be combined. Leverett & the Klezmer Mountain Boys have given us a wonderful gift.” — Dirty Linen
