ISLE OF KLEZBOS
with special guest Bitch

Party for Purim with Isle of Klezbos: Savor and subvert  tradition with the genre-defying powerhouse klezmer sextet!  In addition to gracing festival stages from Seattle to Vienna, the band's soulful, fun-loving music has appeared on Showtime's "The L Word" as well as PBS, CNN, and NPR. Their repertoire alternates between raucous and ethereal, with klezbian sensibility also infusing both an array of original music and certain holiday-themed parodies for this special show. Bringing irreverence and respect to Yiddish roots since 1998, Klezbos members have also individually performed with such artists as Rufus Wainwright, Bonnie Raitt, Natalie Cole, Indigo Girls, Burning Spear, Amy Sedaris, and The Mighty Sparrow.
