SUMMARY:Rebbesoul & Magic Carpet
DESCRIPTION:\nAbout A rock guitarist and studio session musician, Rebb
 esoul was inspired by the haunting beauty of a prayer heed heard one n
 ight in synagogue. From memory, he reconstructed the melody and lyrics
 , and so began a spiritual and musical journey that brought him back t
 o his Jewish heritage. That song tapped something inside Burger, who r
 ecorded the song and submitted it to local radio stations.\n\nMonths l
 ater his acoustic rendition of Avinu Malkeinu garnered record high lis
 tener call-ins when maverick San Francisco station aired it. Now, Burg
 er leads his percussion trio, bringing a new voice to the sometimes-st
 agnant realm of Jewish music, blending rock sensibilities, world fusio
 n stylings and traditional Hebrew melodies for an ageless yet progress
 ive sound. Rebbesoul mixes Mizrahi chant and electronic beats with the
  funk/ethnic rock style, layerng balalaika, guitar and mandolin over o
 f a percussion trio using darbouka, djembes, riq and cajon. Having tou
 red Israel repeatedly, he made Aliyah in 2006.\n\nRebbesoul performs m
 elodies from throughout the Jewish world, from Sephardic romanceros in
  Ladino to Lubavitch niggunim to tunes from Ashkenazi nusach. Carlebac
 h melodies and Mizrahi piyyutim collide with a World beat rhythms- its
  the sound of the Jewish Diaspora coming home.\n\nTranscending geograp
 hical boundaries, Magic Carpet takes the audience on an exhilarating r
 ide through time and space. With the vibrations of Jazz, Reggae, and F
 unk, blended with the traditions of Africa, the Middle East, and India
 , Magic Carpet embarks on a spiritual journey every time they take off
