📣Honored to share that Songs from the Beit Midrash is on this year’s @grammys ballot in the brand new Best Traditional Folk Album category!

The gates are still open as Sukkot approaches. Let’s walk through with the courage to sing out that which is most internally vulnerable - our innermost prayers.

Another Yamim Noraim season come and gone, another cold brew cracked immediately after that final tekiah gedolah. Profoundly grateful for ritual in its myriad forms, and the way it carries us. May this year be full of blessing, goodness, and life. taken in B'nai Jeshurun NYC by @debsmintz
