Description
Lorin Sklamberg wasn't too shocked when pop culture finally caught on to just how explosive Eastern European music could be--especially when combined with contemporary genres, like punk, electronic and hip-hop. The scene Sklamberg has been working in since the mid-'80s long predates bands like Gogol Bordello and Beirut. Sklamberg is a founding member of The Klezmatics, who were an integral part of the second-wave klezmer music revival. Meshing traditional secular Jewish tunes with modern sounds, they have built an international following. Their Hanukkah-themed concert will feature original and cover tunes.
