Dear friends,
Greetings! I hope this finds you well. After an extended
summer hiatus, Janam is back in full musical force and we are
super excited to play for you. We've got some wonderful new tunes
and fun shows lined up next month (including one on a floating
oasis...), so please mark your calendars. We would love to see

Janam’s debut album is
available at: http://cdbaby.com/cd/Janam
“An innovative ensemble that explores a dizzying range of styles,
from Appalachia and Asia Minor to Eastern Europe. The quintet
plays swirling, hard-driving music that always seems to end up in
unexpected places.” SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
“This fine group goes on a world tour of Eastern Europe…with no cultural jet
lag.”
SANTA
BARBARA INDEPENDENT
“They’re
a band to watch, with some sterling musicianship and a real
sense of fervor about them.”
