In ABRAHAM INC., klezmer clarinet virtuoso DAVID KRAKAUER collaborates with trombonist FRED WESLEY--one of the great masters of funk (known for his work with James Brown, Bootsy Collins and Parliament Funkadelic), and beat architect SOCALLED. Add a three-piece horn section led by Wesley, and members of Krakauer's Klezmer Madness! band, and the result is an all-out klezmer-funk dance party!
A sold-out concert at Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall in December 2006 marked the first step in this collaborative venture which was also a hit at New York's world-famous Apollo Theater.
