Meklit Hadero
Door tickets: $18/MEMBERS PAY WHAT YOU WISH
Born in Ethiopia, raised in the U.S. and nurtured by San Francisco's richly diverse arts scene, acclaimed singer Meklit Hadero embodies worlds. Joining her soul-filled phrasing to a songwriter's craft, her music's influences range wide – from the jazz and soul favorites she grew up on; to the hip-hop and art-rock she loves; to folk traditions from the Americas and her forebears' East African home.
Some praise for Meklit Hadero:
"You may not have heard Meklit Hadero's music before, but once you do, it'll be tough to forget. Hadero's sound is a unique blend of jazz, Ethiopia, the San Francisco art scene and visceral poetry; it paints pictures in your head as you listen." - NPR's Tell Me More
"Meklit Hadero… combines N.Y. jazz with West Coast folk and African flourishes, all bound together by Hadero's beguiling voice, which is part sunshine and part cloudy day." - Nevin Martell, Filter Magazine
