First Atlanta Jewish Music Festival! And Greencard DJs will be playing klezmerhop and balkan bangers all night on the outdoor patio.

There will also be some bands:

Moshav Band:
Imagine the jamming of Phish mixed with the vocal strength of Pearl Jam and the spiritual lyrics of U2 seasoned with a Middle Eastern influence and you can begin to describe the unique sound of Moshav.

DeLeon:
15th Century Spanish indie rock infused with the deeply mysterious and entrancing cadences of the ancient Sephardic tradition. Their music, birthed in Spain before the Inquisition and raised in pre-WWII Italy, has finally reached maturity in modern-day Brooklyn.

Girls in Trouble:
Raised on a combination of Baltimore punk shows and classical violin training, and drawing on two years spent studying the Bible in Jerusalem while playing in rock clubs at night, Alicia combines mysticism, a looping pedal, ancient women's tales and poetry to make beautiful songs about love & leprosy.

4th Ward Afro-Klemzer Orchestra:
An original Atlanta musical entity, 4th Ward AKO is a nine piece jazz orchestra playing original compositions and arrangements that combine West African influenced rhythms with Eastern European Klezmer melodies.
