The Kosher Red Hots open the treasury of Jewish music. They embrace a timeless world-café of folk songs, whirlwind klezmer music from Eastern Europe, Judeo-Spanish romances from the eastern Mediterranean, and songs from New York’s Yiddish theater. They have collaborated with NPR’s Susan Stamberg and have inspired dancing in the aisles on A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor.

The musicians are an adventurous vocalist who sings in Yiddish, Ladino, and English, and three master instrumentalists on clarinet, mandolin, bass and guitar. Together they play music that turns from spirited to tender while they weave tales, humor, history, and just plain fun into each concert.
