Accordionist Geoff Berner Celebrates New Album Release at Festivals in Vancouver - Canada

Wise Hall poster
Geoff BernerAccordionist & vocalist Geoff Berner will perform a concert with TJ Dawe & Friends to celebrate the release of his latest klezmer album “Grand Hotel Cosmopolis”, on COAX Records and COAX Europa.

The performance will be held in Wise Hall & Lounge in Vancouver, British Columbia on November 1st at 8pm in conjunction with the Chutzpah! Festival.

The performance is part of a new satirical stage musical by Geoff Berner and TJ Dawe entitled “The Trombonik Returns to New Chelm” which takes inspiration from the traditional comic tales of Jewish folklore about Chelm (a village famous for people whose “wisdom” is so complex as to often sound oddly more like the complete opposite of wisdom).

This Klezmer musical is set in Depression-era Saskatchewan and tells the story of a wandering con artist posing as a rabbi who becomes entangled in the Prohibition whiskey trade.

On November 2nd and 3rd the show will be repeated at the Woodstove Festival in Cumberland, British Columbia.

This is a multi-venue arts and music festival presented by Cumberland Culture and Arts Society featuring over 100 artists performing at 10 indoor venues in downtown Cumberland and will include live music, dance, theatre, spoken word, visual art, kids programming and a vendor fair.
