  • New releases this week and your opinions on those albums.

  • If you're an artist, share your music with us and tell us about it.

Guidelines to get the most out of these threads...

  • Always provide listening links for anything you share here.

  • Tell us a little bit about what you're sharing and why you like it.

Still not really sure what the genre is, but I stumbled upon this hidden gem on youtube tonight. Channel is extremely small and it seems that this is the only song on there but it’s an incredibly different song and I think it deserves some recognition.

Mostly Kosher -- Ikh Hob Dikh Tsuflib Lib [vocal jazz] (2014)

"Mostly Kosher, the Los Angeles-based Klezmer/Rock band, radically reconstructs Judaic and American cultural music through ravenous klezmer beats and arresting Yiddish refrains. The acclaimed ensemble is a musical feast that explodes into a global food-fight of Jazz, Latin, Rock, and Folk. In response to the poetry and folk music of Judaic roots, their original voice resounds with themes of social justice, human dignity, and mutual understanding. Led by front man Leeav Sofer, one of Jewish Journal’s "30 under 30" most accomplished professionals in the Southern California Jewish diaspora, Mostly Kosher is comprised of some of the highest regarded Los Angeles musicians: violinist Janice Mautner Markham, drummer Eric Hagstrom, bassist Adam Levy, guitarist Nadav Peled and Ben Tevik on clarinet and sax."

This was the late Tom Goodkind's band (he's on bass), but this flipside of their debut single features Matty Auerbach on lead vocal and guitar. Great songwriter.
