It was a big weekend for the Klezmer Rebs. Welcoming Urs from Taranaki, Emma from Auckland and Amanda from Gisborne we navigated CubaDupa’s thousands and played a lively set Saturday at Hannah’s Courtyard, followed by a 45 minute roam through the Cuba district spreading klezmer joy! What a wonderful reception on the streets! Then Sunday we performed a special one off concert at Futuna Chapel where we were able to play some delicate and beautiful melodies in a resonant space. Here are some fotos from the gigs.

After 10 days on the road in the South Island, Wellingtonians get their chance to see the Rebs perform live.

First up is CubaDupa on Saturday 27 March. The Rebs do a mid afternoon set at Hannah’s Courtyard Stage, and then becoming roaming klezmorim bringing klezmer tunes up, down and around Cuba Street.

Then, for those who want a more intimate and less raucous time, the Rebs perform a (mostly) acoustic concert at the Futuna Chapel in Karori at 2pm. $10 at the door or through eventbrite.co.nz

Guaranteed to cure lockdown blues, the Klezmer Rebs are back on stage in Wellington on Saturday 14 November at the Polish Xmas Market in Newtown.

Eager to get those tuchases shaking, the Rebs bring their Eastern European vibe in a return to live performance at the annual Polish market with their first set of the year (since playing the Taupo Jazz Festival in January).

Catch the Rebs set Saturday afternoon (time to be confirmed) the 14^th of November at Dom Polski 257 Riddiford Street (corner Rhodes), Newtown, Wellington.

Hello Klezmer Reb fans/supporters/friends/groupies

If CubaDupa hadn’t been cancelled the Klezmer Rebs would be on stage today and roaming on Cuba Street spreading our klezmer nachas (joy).

But Oy Vey there’s this thing out there.  So, Nu? The antidote is here!
