Golem is a 6 piece Eastern European f olk-punk band.\n\n\nAdvance Tickets:\n\nYoung, hip widely acclaimed Ne w York-based Klezmer/Rock band GOLEM transforms the music of its Jewis h grandparents, making it modern, edgy, sexy and brash. Their explosiv e onstage attitude gets Klezmer to rock.\n\nFronted by Annette Ezekiel - bandleader, accordionist and singer - as well as madcap vocalist Aa ron Diskin and violin virtuoso Alicia Jo Rabins, the band's six member s, all in their 20's and 30's, create GOLEM's powerfully vibrant sound . With updated versions of old Yiddish tunes, Golem seduces audiences of Klezmer fans and rockers alike, and is equally at home as rock club s, synagogues, and concert halls, from Lincoln Center's Damrosch Park to the rock clubs of the Lower East Side.\n\nTheir performance is a ve ritable party with a historical message - each song evokes old-world c ities longed for by homesick Jewish immigrants: Odessa, Romania, Bukov ina, Nikolayev, Belz and Bialystok as well as wild gypsy songs learned during travels in Serbia, Russia, and Ukraine. The result is a musica l romp through Eastern Europe and A snapshot of shtetl life through th e filter of a much younger generation's eyes.\n\n\"A Gypsy-punk gem!\" - SPIN.com\n\"Golem produces the sort of music you'd expect if the sh tetl were filled with punks instead of peasants.\" - The Washington Po st\n\"Stellar!
