DAVID KRAKAUER’S KLEZMER MADNESS! FEATURING SOCALLED
WOMEX SHOWCASE: THURSDAY OCTOBER 27TH AT THE SAGE GATESHEAD (20:50 showtime)
Sponsored by Label Bleu
Lies My Gramma Told Me: David Krakauer Teams with DJ Socalled to Kick Beats
& Dispel Bubbemeises. In Search of the Pastoral Doyna and the Perfect Reed.
Emerging from the dying embers of the first klezmer revival of the late
1980s when klezmorim were transcribing traditional melodies note for note
from old 78 rpm records, clarinet spaceman David Krakauer once again
consults the turntables, this time in the form of a creative collaborator.
The music on Bubbemeises: Lies My Gramma Told Me, the new Label Bleu CD
that teams Krakauer with Jewish hip hop DJ Socalled, is not your gramma's
klezmer. Unless gramma likes remixed Hasidic chant, klezmer tributes to
James Brown, and an in-your-face raving battle for reinvented Jewish
identity.
