With soulful melodies and sweet harmonies recalling the best of classic pop vocals (think The Beatles, James Taylor, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young), Ira and Julia Levin create a unique form of music somewhere between "World Folk" and "Harmonious Folk Pop." Their debut release 36 is based on the Talmudic legend of the thirty-six Lamed Vavniks, the silent righteous individuals who keep the world in balance with their selfless benevolence.
The Levins speak the universal language of hope and compassion, and their sweet harmonies and wonderful energy are an extension of their dedication to the upliftment of all. Their tune "Daniel's Round" was selected to appear on the new Ruach 5771 CD, a collection of the best new Jewish music. This joyful recording will lift your heart and bring a smile to your face!
