MAY 17 LIVE AT THE MINT

[Los Angeles-MAY 1, 2013] On Friday, May 17, progressive comedienne/actor and activist Roseanne Barr presents "Mideast Masters of Jazz," a progressive be-bop quintet starring sax maniacs Gilad Atzmon and Zane Musa, performing together LIVE for the first time. The event will be hosted at The Mint in Los Angeles, accompanied by some of the best be-bop musicians in Los Angeles. To be sure, jazz as well as rock, heavy metal, hip hop and blues are all-American music originals, but they are genres that are constantly being challenged and reinvented by swingers in the Middle East-by composers, singer-songwriters and musicians who are both natively Middle Eastern but strongly western in their tastes and travels.

The great Greek comedian Angelo Tsarouchas rejoins forces with Maz Jobrani

At one time another most of these comedic characters have landed laughs as members of the Sultans of Satire, and Maz Jobrani headlined the world-famous "Axis of Evil Comedy Tour" with his buddies Ahmed Ahmed and Aron Kader (all three have been cultural ambassadors for the Levantine Center). Now Angela Tsarouchas, the great Greek comedian who moved to L.A. from Canada, headlines with Maz and Frank Spadone, while the show is hosted by the devilishly irreverent Ara Basil, with guest appearances by Noel Elgrably and Kira Soltanqvich.
