RICK RECHT TO PERFORM CHANUKAH COMMUNITY CONCERT AT CONGREGATION KEHILLATH ISRAEL ON DECEMBER 17, 2009 IN BROOKLINE, MA.
BROOKLINE, MA (11/17/09) - Rick Recht, the top-touring musician in Jewish music, will perform a Chanukah concert on Thursday, December 17, 2009 at 7PM Congregation Kehillath Israel, 384 Harvard Street, Brookline.

Rick Recht's high-energy, interactive concert appeals to all ages. He will be performing songs from his newly released album Simply Shabbat, as well as selections from his other hit albums. Tickets for this event are $12 each, with a maximum of $45 per family and can be purchased online at www.congki.org, or by calling 617.277.9155 x215. Tickets are also available in the synagogue office, or at Kolbo Judaica Shop, 437 Harvard Street, Brookline.

"One of the things I love about Jewish music is that it brings communities together," said Rick Recht. "I look at these gatherings as an incredible opportunity to get inside each and every person and help them to get loose, open up and connect with each other in a really positive, Jewish way."

Performing more than 125 concerts each year from coast to coast, Recht produces a unique blend of pop, radio-friendly music in Hebrew and English based on Jewish text and themes of social responsibility. A charismatic performer, Recht is known for powerful, interactive performances that have earned him a strong, loyal national fan base of all ages.

"This is exactly the type of Jewish programming that Kehillath Israel is known for," explains Jennifer Rudin, KI's Director of Congregational Learning. "There is so much light in Rick's music. It is a perfect way for the entire community to celebrate Chanukah."

Kehillath Israel looks forward to hosting the Greater Boston Jewish Community at this Thursday night of Chanukah concert. We will celebrate together in song as we rock all ages!

NEW YORK, NY Uplifting groove-oriented music that combines hip hop, reggae, folk, and a bit of Hebrew.

The concert takes place on Tuesday November 10, 2009 at 8pm at the Living Room, 154 Ludlow Street, NYC. Cover charge is $12. Chana will be sharing the bill with C Lanzbom and BettySoo. This concert is part of WFUV's "On Your Radar," a live music series sponsored by John Platt, host for WFUV's Sunday Breakfast. For more information about the show, contact (212) 533-7237 or visit www.livingroomny.com.

WFUV will also air an in-studio session on Sunday November 1 from 10-11 a.m., featuring Chana Rothman and C Lanzbom on John Platt's Sunday Breakfast at 90.7 FM in New York and on the web at wfuv.org.

MORE ABOUT CHANA ROTHMAN:

Chana's music, using two languages and ancient texts to address social ills and joys of today, brings a universal appeal. The message is unity through music. Two years as a Head Songleader in Reform Judaism's teen leadership summer camps helped Chana develop a passion for music as a tool to bring communities together.

RICHARD ANTONE of ELMORE MAGAZINE writes: "Rothman's music bubbles with a conscious vibe that's capable of bringing people together. She is adept at using religious imagery and bilingual lyrics as a bridge rather than a wedge."

Chana's debut album, "We Can Rise," (Oyhoo Records) produced by C Lanzbom, was voted "Best Album of 2007" by jewschool.com and she was featured in "Top 5 Women Who Rock" by American Jewish Life and Lilith Magazine. Chana was also featured in the documentary film "Jewish Music: More Than Just Klezmer" produced by Brooklyn College Media Department.
NEW YORK TIMES says of Chana Rothman:"Worth Checking Out"

ROC stands for Congregation Ramat Orah but I will not be leading services - they have set up a stage in their rec room and the space has a great vibe. I know because I played there a few months ago and it was really fun! There's a band called Eden playing at about 9:15 or so and I go on at about 10:15 - so come on out and catch some real fun music on a rainy Saturday night in NYC. Because you can."

JDub's Slivovitz and Soul with Soulico and Golem
July 27 2008, 8:00 PM

New York-based JDub Records brings artists performing innovative Jewish music that crosses cultures and breaks down barriers. Soulico, the four-member DJ crew from Tel Aviv with guest vocalists, delivers an original blend of Middle Eastern folk songs with hip hop beats using turntables, mixers and samplers. Golem takes listeners on a journey from Eastern Europe to the the Lower East Side. These folk-punk auteurs will electrify dance floors with their globetrotting goulash of Jewish, Slavic and Roma songs and stories.

Late night hang--bon voyage to TOMER TZUR - 12 midnight
Sunday, April 1st, 2007
Zebulon - zebuloncafeconcert.com
258 Wythe Ave. bet N 3rd and Metropolitan
Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY 11221
718 218 6934
Price: Free

As we prepare to enter the Springtime, the season of pilgrimage and slaughtered lambs, the season of feasting and rejoicing, the season of energies unbridled and blood flowing loose in the veins, we of The Sway Machinery prepare to say a fond farewell to TOMER TZUR, who will be moving back to his native land of Israel at the end of the month. For me personally, NYC without Tomer is almost as hard to imagine as New York without graffiti on the subway cars and the 2nd Avenue Deli standing proudly on the corner of E 11th Street. These things, too, we have seen pass. But before I start pulling out my third hanky, I'll have you all know, there's a party starting and it won't stop 'till we all drop. This Sunday night at Zebulon, starting at an unwholesome hour and going until it's time to go, we will regal our friends and fans with our music and enjoy the company of my man Tomer Tzur in good old-fashioned style.

Golem is a young, hip, widely acclaimed NY-based klezmer/rock band transforms the music of its Jewish-Yiddish grandparents, making it modern, edgy, and sexy. Golem has infused the world music scene with a breath of fresh air from Eastern Europe with a powerfully vibrant sound.

Joanne Borts, Broadway Diva; Adrienne Cooper, Concert Stage Diva and Theresa Tova, Jazz-Cabaret Diva, blend their multilingual repertoire and phenomenal talents into a sophisticated, emotionally charged and stunningly powerful concert. Joining the Divas is the masterful Dan Rosengard.

The Gala is on June 15th at 7:30 pm at Queens Theatre in the Park, Flushing, New York. Tickets are from $36 to $100. From more information call 718-265-5011 or visit Freilach in the Park.
