Sol Crawford’s Pioneering Hornucopia Music Festival Highlights SF Diversity


Allison Lovejoy talks with Sol Crawford organizer of the SF Hornucopia music festival.

Sol Crawford is one of the most interesting of San Francisco’s music promoters. He is a co-partner at Amnesia, which has earned a reputation for one of the best live performance rooms in the Mission.

Hornucopia is a celebration of any music with horns, and that’s a very broad definition. Starting September 4th 35 bands will play across 9 venues in 11 days.

The Hornucopia Festival is also a non-profit effort to benefit community organizations through a free music workshop, an educational presentation on the provocative history of brass and horn music, and as a fundraiser for two worthy causes: delivering new instruments into the hands of beleaguered youth second line bands in New Orleans and raising money for a humanitarian circus that presents free shows and workshops to refugee children in Kosovo.

Reviving the Fillmore’s Jazz Heritage


Allison Lovejoy to interviewed Peter Fitzsimmons, the head of the Fillmore Jazz Heritage Center. He told of plans to revive what used to be a vibrant jazz scene in San Francisco. In fact, the term “jazz” was first used here, he says, not in “N’Orleans.”

It is a controversial claim…
