Event Info: 

  Ruckus has been called "the world's only period-instrument rock band" (SF Classical Voice) for its high-energy fusion of the early-music movement's questing, creative spirit with the grit, groove, and jangle of American roots music. Joined by versatile baritone Davone Tines, they explore songs from baroque to contemporary. According to The New Yorker, "Davone Tines is changing what it means to be a classical singer" in all the best ways. His artistry creates bright new intersections of history, genres, and styles, telling deeply personal, universally relevant stories of human connection.
