Bay Area nightlife picks, Sept. 4-7
DakhaBrakha: Combining punk and world music seems an unlikely recipe, but DakhaBrakha pulls it off, playing Ukrainian folk songs with a fierce energy and beats borrowed from Africa, Brazil, North Africa, R&B and hip-hop. Their origin in Ukraine’s theater scene is evident in their costumes and visual presentation. 1 p.m. Sunday. Free. Yerba Buena Gardens, Mission Street (between Third and Fourth streets), S.F. (415) 543-1718. www.ybgfestival.org.
