The Arhoolie Foundation – a non-profit organization dedicated to the documentation, preservation, and celebration of regional roots music – is proud to announce its 5th annual Arhoolie Awards and Benefit Concert, to be held April 14th at San Francisco’s The Chapel.

Proceeds from the event will help further the mission of the Foundation built on the work of founder Chris Strachwitz and his seminal independent record label Arhoolie Records. Through our exhibitions, books, films, and Arhoolie Awards, we seek to broaden public awareness of our diverse music history, support the vitality of living traditions, and reinforce the value and sustainability of community-based cultures.

Enjoy a night of down-home blues, authentic Tejano conjunto music, and the best in Americana. This event features live performances by Dave Alvin, and Arhoolie Award winners Santiago Jimenez Jr and Jerron “Blind Boy” Paxton.

The event will also feature a silent auction for rare Arhoolie items and other roots music gifts.
