A Gnarls Barkley song on accordion? Why that’s, uh, “Crazy!”
Kama Ruby and the Rough
Cuts will be making an appearance at The Padre Hotel on November 4th,
2016. The jazz influenced group will be providing entertainment for a
fundraiser that will benefit the Housing &
Opportunity Foundation of Kern.
Entitled “Dreaming
Beyond the Stars – Une Nuit de Paris,” the French themed evening is the
premier gala fundraising event for the organization, a non-profit whose mission
is to provide services to the neediest of families, as well as low & fixed
income seniors in Kern County.
Attendees will be able to enjoy crepes, French kiss cocktails,
and many more surprises.
Reasoning that most people would rather have a hand up than
a hand out, the Foundation helps to provide tools and education for those in
need in Kern County. By supporting this effort, either by attending this event
or becoming a sponsor, you will help them become assets not only to their
community but also to themselves.
A Bakersfield native and graduate of CSUB and UNLV, Ms. Ruby
is well known for her unique interpretations of jazz standards as well as
imparting a jazzy influence upon classic rock and pop tunes. She is also known
for “themed” concerts such as a night of Burt Bacharach songs or performances
devoted to artists such as Joni Mitchell.
For this event, the group has added several French songs to
their set list, including “Ou Vent les Fleurs” (“Where Have All the Flowers
Gone?”) and the classic Edith Piaf song, “Non, Je ne Regrette Rien.” (Film
enthusiasts will recognize that as the “kick” song used in the movie, “Inception,”
to awaken Leonardo DiCaprio and his associates from their journeys into the
world of dreams.
As an added attraction and performing for the first time
with Ms. Ruby, Bakersfield’s world renowned accordionist Richard Noel will
add his distinctive and virtuoso skills to the group. The former CSUB professor
and tennis star has attracted a huge following across the world. Earlier this
year he traveled to Australia to perform for his fans and wowed audiences
there.
Completing the powerhouse musical group will be pianist Doug
Davis, the former man-in-charge of the Bakersfield Jazz Festival, Mark Meyer on
sax, and Glen Fong on bass.
In addition to the Piaf song above, attendees will enjoy
renditions of other songs not normally heard in the local musical scene,
including Grace Jones’ “Libertango” and a duet of Gnarls Barkley’s “Crazy,” with
Ms. Ruby on vocals accompanied by Mr. Noel on accordion – something one
definitely doesn’t experience every day!
Activities will start at 6:30 p.m. and end at midnight. Tickets
for this charitable event are $125 and available at the following link: Tickets
