The Carolina Chocolate Drops are a group of young African-American stringband musicians that have come together to play the rich tradition of fiddle and banjo music in Carolinas’ piedmont. Even their name, The Carolina Chocolate Drops, could be seen as a recycled relic of the past. Back in the 1930s there was an African-American string band, the Tennessee Chocolate Drops, that included fiddler and mandolin player Howard Armstrong (1909 – 2003). The Carolina Chocolate Drops have rejuvenated the long-ignored music of these remarkable, but disregarded musicians. In doing so, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, one of only a handful of Black string bands, are making history. "... pulled audience members away from their natural inhibitions and inspired them to sing, clap and dance in their seats" March 6, 7, 13, 14, 7:30 p.m. March 28, 7 p.m.

The Klezmer revival of the 1980’s was still young when the Klezmatics exploded onto the scene, shaking up Eastern European Jewish folk with jazz and world-music influences. Seventeen years later, it’s impossible to imagine the genre without them. The Klezmatics are world-renowned superstars of the klezmer world. They erupted out of New York City’s East Village in 1986 and revitalized klezmer for the new century. Over the course of nearly 20 years, they have released six albums of wild, spiritual, provocative, reflective, and ecstatically danceable music, forever redefining and transcending traditional labels. "The Klezmatics are wonderful... 'Gonna Get Through This World' is a piece of GENIUS." May 2, 7:30 p.m. May 9, 7:30 p.m.
