Upcoming FMC Show


The Claremont Folk Music Center will present Janet Klein and her Parlor Boys on Saturday, February 21st. Doors open at 7pm, and the show starts at 7:30. Tickets are $15.00.

The FMC's website gives a little description of what to expect at the show:

We welcome Janet Klein and her Parlor Boys back the the Folk Music Center. Janet probably should have been born at the beginning of the 20th century, when the "obscure, naughty and lovely" songs she sings were popular. It's the era to which she feels most drawn, and whose spirit and style she so successfully recreates with her music.

The L.A.-based singer records and performs a vast repertoire of long-forgotten material-- songs from the 1910's, 20's and '30's that few people even know exist.

You can hear samples of Janet Klein here and Hobo Jazz here. Or, you can watch the sample below:
