Stephen Fisher of the Manawatu Standard reviews the Klezmer Rebs’ 17 January performance at the Palmerston North Library with lots of kind words here.
Rebs Storm Palmerston North and Tokomaru
The Rebs have just returned from 2 stunning shows in the Manawatu. First we played the great rural cafe the Bent Horseshoe. Must have done something right because the packed cafe of 42 paying customers bought 18 CDs! Thanks to Steve at the Cafe for having the Rebs and being a passionate supporter of NZ music!
Then we drew a crowd of about 120 at Palmerston North City Library on Sunday afternoon. What a welcome – Palmerston North sure knows how to show appreciation and support for us klezmorim! Urs was particularly proud to have his ex music teacher from college in the audience.
Here is a foto from the Library gig. We are looking forward to the review in the local Manawatu Standard after great publicity in all 3 local papers.

Ethnic folk vibe set to please the crowds
Check this link for a nice article on the Rebs in the Wairarapa Times Age promoting our upcoming performances at the Greytown Arts Festival on 24 January.
And apologies for the error in the article – Reb Rose O’hara (our keyboardist) is indeed from Masterton but her uncle not her grandfather started the famous Golden Shears competition.
