Yiddish Psychedelic Rock
The five-piece band with charismatic singer Sasha Lurje from Latvia has discovered 100-year-old love songs. These songs, sung by women, tell universal stories of love, jealousy, war, pain, adultery, death and long-distance relationships. Combined with the raw energy of Klezmer inspired accompaniment played on traditional rock instruments, the band creates a new soundscape full of sadness and hope. A meditation on tradition, animated by the present - a personal journey of the musicians into a parallel world, in search of their own Jewish roots and values.
