Critically-acclaimed, pioneering bluegrass band Nefesh Mountain have announced their 2020 Winter Tour which kicked off last week in New Orleans at Folk Alliance International.
Nefesh Mountain is the first of its kind to blend American folk musical
traditions with a rich, Jewish cultural heritage. Audiences from New
York to Hong Kong will have the opportunity to see the band weave
together its unique blend of bluegrass, old-time, Celtic, and American
roots with its own background as Jewish Americans.
Creators, band leaders, and husband and wife team Doni Zasloff and Eric Lindberg are the heart of this eclectic offering, alongside longtime bandmate and fiddle player Alan Grubner, David Goldenberg on mandolin, and Max Johnson on
bass. This quintet is adept with a string virtuosity that is reflected
in their arrangements of modern folk/bluegrass, combined with songs of
the heart and a sense of oneness and purpose that inspires all of their
work.
