Sol Crawford is one of the most interesting of San Francisco’s music promoters. He is a co-partner at Amnesia, which has earned a reputation for one of the best live performance rooms in the Mission.

Hornucopia is a celebration of any music with horns, and that’s a very broad definition. Starting September 4th 35 bands will play across 9 venues in 11 days.

The Hornucopia Festival is also a non-profit effort to benefit community organizations through a free music workshop, an educational presentation on the provocative history of brass and horn music, and as a fundraiser for two worthy causes: delivering new instruments into the hands of beleaguered youth second line bands in New Orleans and raising money for a humanitarian circus that presents free shows and workshops to refugee children in Kosovo.

He told of plans to revive what used to be a vibrant jazz scene in San Francisco. In fact, the term “jazz” was first used here, he says, not in “N’Orleans.”

It is a controversial claim…
