San Francisco Performers and Greens Team up for CLEAN-FUEL CARAVAN CABARET

World music/alternative energy concert to liven-up United Nations World Environment Day, Friday, June 3rd

San Francisco – Live Afrobeat music, Brazilian drums, gypsy jazz, and political puppets are part of a wild local celebration for World Environment Day, a week-long international conference being held for the first time in the U.S. Top local musicians will perform from a solar-powered stage to raise money for the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, a local group of performers that tour the country performing energy education, music, and public outreach. Headlining the clean-fuel concert – to be held at the Cellspace - is San Francisco’s own 11-piece Afrobeat orchestra, Aphrodesia, which tours the country in a bus powered by vegetable oil. The band will give tours of their bus before their performance. Local Brazilian percussion master Emiliano Benevides will perform with Batucada 1000, a collective of the Bay Area’s top Brazilian musicians. The Big Tadoo Puppet Crew, who also travel in a bio-fuel bus and are members of the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, will perform their acclaimed energy act, Dr. FeelFine’s Cure-all Circus Sideshow. Taarka, a unique ‘seismic gypsy hypno-jazz’ group from Portland, Or., will also perform.
Concert-goers can enjoy organic wine and beer at the event, and witness a panel discussion by noted energy experts and environmental activists. Also planned are an environmental art show, numerous informational booths, and a clean-fuel auto show to be held just outside the CELLspace.
