Ellis Island Old World Folk Band

The Ellis Island Old World Folk Band  has played a pioneering role in reviving klezmer music in the San Francisco Bay Area and has been delighting audiences for two decades with its performance of this lively Eastern European Jewish music. 

The group is truly an Old World Folk Band. Its repertoire encompasses a wide variety of traditional music from such countries as Russia, Italy and Greece. Ellis Island has been featured in concerts, festivals, delicatessens, community centers and colleges and has performed for anniversaries, memorial services, circumcisions, baby namings and, of course, weddings, bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs throughout Northern California. 

Ellis Island will bring laughter to your lips, a tear to your eye, joy to your heart and have you dancing in the aisles. Come! Enjoy!
