  PBOMS is sponsoring this special free community screening of the amazing documentary film The Canote Twins.

  The Canote Twins gives us an intimate look into the remarkable bond of identical twins Greg and Jere Canote. Sharing their genetically-matched musical mastery and joyful spirit, they spread happiness and optimism to all they meet. The film shares their journey from infancy to festival favorites as they take their place in the rich tradition of singing brother duets. 

  Come out to this fun event, see the film, meet the director Larry Edelman and Greg and Jere Canote.  The Canotes will be playing a show the next day at the ANZA Club for us as well!

  This event is free, but we ask you to pre-register (link TBD).
