Yabulka

Yabulka (YA-bul-ka) is the word for "apple" in Bulgarian—so we can be described as a traditional Bitov (village-style) ensemble playing Bulgarian music from Sonoma county apple country! Get ready to dance with Barbara Babin, gadulka; Jim Avera, vocals/gaida; Andy Toplarski, vocals; Jana Mariposa Muhar, tupan; and Ken Genetti, tambura. Joined March 29 by Nancy McGee, bass, and Clayton Newman, vocals.

Save the date: Saturday, March 29, 7–10 p.m.!

Yabulka and Gradina at the annual Red and Black Ball, Monroe Hall, 1400 W. College Ave., Santa Rosa. $5 adults, kids free. Wear red and black! Potluck snacks.
