It’s not too early to hit the beach. For the 9th year, I’ll be heading down to the southern-most tip of New Jersey for the Cape May Singer/Songwriter Festival! I can’t wait to return to the Bed & Breakfast Capital to perform as part of this music industry conference. All performances are free and open to the public. I will also be hosting the After-Party, a special midnight songwriter’s jam on the last night of the fest, and you’re all invited.

One Voice, Two Lives

I just returned from traveling through Poland with my grandfather. Together, we did several performances there, taking some time to visit places in Warsaw where my grandfather grew up, and in Auschwitz where my grandfather was held prisoner by the Nazis. It was an incredibly profound journey, and it inspired me to do a lot of writing. Read my blog posts from our time in Poland: HERE.

I am so fortunate to have these moments with my grandfather, experiencing and reliving his life story. His memoir, One Voice, Two Lives, has just been published and is now available online. My grandfather will be doing a book signing event in New Jersey this month (and we may even put a little music together). I am so proud that he is sharing his story with the world. Come and hear his story (and buy his book).

Sat, December 12: Princeton, NJ – Congregation Beth Chaim
