RE: Klezmatics re-release

[Lorin Sklamberg <lsklamberg...>]

Hi, List

Actually, Rounder is reissuing both Rhythm + Jews (which was originally
available in the U.S. on Flying Fish) and Shvaygn = Toyt (the Klezmatics'
debut recording, never before available domestically).

These, together with our new cd, Rise Up! Shteyt oyf! (finally set free from
klezmer purgatory) are scheduled for release on May 13.

And, for those of you in the San Francisco Bay area, the band will perform
as part of the Berkeley Jewish Music Festival this coming Saturday, March 29
at 8pm at Wheeler Auditorium, UC Berkeley with special guest Holly Near (who
will join us for her [now bi-lingual] anthem, I Ain't Afraid).

The evening will be MCd by none other than Ronnie Gilbert.
