CARA Award CARA 1998 Award Runner-up for Best Folk Song ("Eretz Shiv'at Haminim")
Just Plain Folks Award Just Plain Folks 2006 Award Nominee for Best Song ("Behold!")
Another tapestry from Vocolot of breathtakingly beautiful melodies, harmonies and dynamic percussion. Includes the passionate, upbeat anti-war "Lo Yisa Goy," the sensuous, evocative, "Sham'a VaTismach Tsiyon", and the elevating, healing lyrics and harmonies of "Camarada," an adaptation from Walt Whitman's "Song of the Open Road." This is music with universal heart, Jewish soul and social conscience.

New!

Listeners' Comments:
