Lebedik Yankee is a new project from one of the world's foremost Yiddish singers, Sasha Lurje (Latvia), and klezmer/bluegrass violinist Craig Judelman (USA). Together they explore the journey of Yiddish songs from Eastern Europe to America. Based in Berlin, the musicians bring their own special relationship to the songs, drawing equally from the traditions of old world and new. They have been captivating European and American audiences with this new program and they are thrilled to be joined by legend of the klezmer low end, Mark Rubin (New Orleans), as well as Pacific Northwest roots music favorite, Matt Sircely.
