The pickPocket Ensemble - "world
cafe music"
http://www.pickpocketensemble.com
Revolution
Cafe
3248 22nd St, San Francisco, CA 94110
No Cover
I played on the pickPocket Ensemble's record "memory." Their music is
like a musical Rorschach blot - leader Rick Corrigan writes
all the music. Yates Brown is on
guitar, John Slattery percussion, Matthew Souther trumpet.
My old friend Chloe Allen is on
violin. I've known her since my days in the
circus.
Some people hear Roma (Gypsy) music, and I've met
folks from central Europe who say the group's music is
what they grew up with. The tunes are really
good, regardless. Cafe Revolution is very much a
bohemian kind of joint in the Mission.

Additional performers TBA.
Our 2018 Freight show was described by
attendees as an outstanding show in a town
that sees many great performances.
The Freight and Salvage is one of the best
venues around. I love playing here
and seeing shows. It's comfortable,
without a single bad seat in the
house.
Curious what you missed last time at The
Freight, and want to get some sense of
what the show will be like? Or do
you want another chance to see last year's
show? Check out our YouTube
channel. It features a
bunch of performances from our Freight
& Salvage show last year.
