I never thought I would hear anything that reconciled my Jewishness with my rural Southern roots. Jewish jazz I've heard, Jewish blues... Maybe... But this is my first Jewish bluegrass, and I'm in love. PS, that bochur sure can pick.

What do you mean? Who do you think financed the Confederacy then had to watch when they drove ol' Dixie down. It wasn't about slavery which was non-viable by the time of the Civil War. It was about them carpetbaggin' Yankees. Ever hear Andy Statman kzread.info/dash/bejne/hnub28mdYcrTkso.html

I enjoy listening to them because I come from what I thought were the typical Scots-Irish, Irish, Scotch and English (Celtic) Southern families who are now either Baptist or Church of God , but we have always loved the Jewish people and Israel. Our family also had Dutch ancestry which I thought was odd. Lo and behold, we have Jewish roots in that "Dutch" ancestry. Not enough DNA to have absolute proof since they assimilated with other people. There was also "apostasy" or becoming Christian or Jewish Believers but still persecuted severely for being Protestant They became Huguenots or French Reformed (Calvinists). The Huguenots also claim Jewish roots coming from the tribes of Reuben and Benjamin. My family lived in the Lower Valenciennes in France being forced out of Holland. However, Jewish historians mentioned my ancestors several times as part of a group of founding members of the first Jewish settlement in Maryland. Also, both sides of my family are very musical and often played in many mountain bands and played mountain music which is a very close relative of Blue Grass coming from East Tennessee or the Great Smoky Mountains. My Uncles played on the Grand Ole Opry for a short time until World War II My Papaw was a well-known local banjo player (fiddle, guitar, piano,etc--he could pick up any instrument and could play it) in Gatlinburg, TN who taught many locals how to play the banjo claw-hammer style.

Yes awesome isnt it...a true blessing

8 years later, in December and thinking of October 7 2023, this song is as relevant as ever

Beautiful harmony! and love the banjo--very nice rendition of this song, which I heard on movie, " O, Brother, Where art thou?" from the Cohen Brothers.

Every time I hear this song I remember that movie: O Brother, Where Art Thou?

In this time of pandemic one might dislike anything contagious? 0h NOT SO. Your joyful rendition makes me smile (face, heart, feet). Modeh Ani, may your blessing fall upon many.

Doni your Hebrew is tight! And Jewgrass is an awesome idea. From your new fan in Israel.

Your joy is palpable and contagious! Thank you for this five-minute blessing. Peace and light.

todah rabbah thank you for such a beautiful song praise to the lord amen

Simply LOVE! HalleluYAH!!!! This is the Modah version I do daily now!! \0/

I’m a new fan! So happy I saw you at Temple Etz Chaim,. People were dancing in the isles!!! It’s impossible to be sad when you hear a banjo

You both produce such anointed music that I get chills and weep all at the same time!!!

I’m trying to learn this banjo riff - can you tell me what your tuning is?

Hey, a friend of mine told me I should have been in your audience last weekend. He assumed I was at Delaware Valley Bluegrass fester with my wife, silly man. He doesn't know I can't leave the kitten home alone. Anyway, hope to catch y'all down the road. I'm Mr. Claire Lynch.

Claire, with Jim, was great at DVBGF. It was good seeing, and speaking with, them again.

Follow Yeshua. Nice banjo work!

I would like see the hebrew lyrics, so I know how to pronounce the hebrew...
