In 2008, Leonard Cohen thrilled his fans by announcing his first tour dates in 15 years. He’s gone on to play in virtually every corner of the globe, with performances that were hailed as some of the best of his career. “Songs From the Road” collects twelve performances of some of Leonard Cohen’s most iconic songs from across all of those many miles and performances.  The album’s opening track “Lover, Lover, Lover”, was taped at Cohen’s unforgettable show at Ramat Gan Stadium, Tel Aviv, Israel, on September 24, 2009.

Gangsta Rabbi - Sunrise Sunset  DOWNLOAD

Check out the interview The NY Blueprint conducted with everyone’s favorite Comptroller by day, punk rocker by night, neither gangsta, nor rabbi, the one and only Gangsta Rabbi

Steve Lieberman is neither a gangsta nor a rabbi. But he is a tough punk rocker who says his faith in God has helped him get through some tumultuous trials and tribulations, including a short stint in a psychiatric ward, losing his house in a fire, and three failed marriages. He’s also started his own sect of Judaism. And after recording 16 albums, his 17th effort “DikTator 17,” helped him get signed to JDub Records for a digital release.

Can!Can - God Lives in NYC  DOWNLOAD

JDub is pumped to announce the digital release of Monsters & Healers, the debut LP from Atlanta-based Can!!Can.

Can!!Can is a hard rocking band fascinated with spirituality and traditional texts in a decidedly nontraditional setting. Songs like “Giants” (You build an altar/You find a priest/Two tablets tell us what to do and say and feel and think) and “God Lives in NYC” (In the city of forbidden fruit/Child, you know you’ll touch the sky/HaShem brings a beautiful light/Bottled up when the city’s alive) illustrate Can!!Can’s complex understanding that mythology, spirituality and rock ‘n roll are inextricably tied together.

You can buy the album from iTunes or Amazon on July 6th.
Exclusive opportunity for JDub fans! Download it TODAY for $4.99!

Check this video of Patrick of Can!!Can reinterpreting the Megillah from JDub’s  Purim party earlier this year

People may know the songs and albums he’s played on more than his name, but a bona fide musical icon from the 1960s made Aliyah to Israel last year.  Harvey Brooks has played bass guitar on some of the most groundbreaking records of the post-Beatles era - including Bob Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited (1965), Miles Davis’s Bitches Brew (1969), The Doors’ The Soft Parade (1969) and 1968’s Super Session featuring Michael Bloomfield, Al Kooper and Stephen Stills. And that’s only a fraction of the some 100 albums he’s appeared on or produced over the past 40 years on his way to cementing his status as one of the most respected figures on the American music scene. Brooks and his family currently live in Jerusalem. Click here to watch the YNET interview.

Some of the top names of Israeli, German and Palestinian Hip Hop will gather this Wednesday at the Yellow Submarine in Jerusalem to make connections and bust some dope rhymes. Organized by Heartbeat Jerusalem and the Willy Brandt Center, in association with Corner Prophets. If you’re in J-Town this week, make sure you’re there.

Clare Burson - I Will With You

Critically acclaimed indie songstress Clare Burson and historic gastronomist Sarah Lohman are joining forces to present a unique evening of music, food, memory and history. This intimate event at the historic Henry Street Settlement House will feature Clare performing SILVER AND ASH, a song cycle inspired by her grandmother’s escape from Germany in 1938 and Burson’s own struggle with the legacy of family secrets and loss. As Clare performs, audience members will participate in a four course meal comprised of dishes prepared by Ms. Lohman that, like SILVER AND ASH, progress from late 19th century Eastern Europe through Weimar Germany and 1950’s Tennessee, and end in present day Brooklyn.

This unique event is one night-only and shouldn’t be missed.  Very limited seating, buy your tickets now you so you don’t miss out!!

Thursday, June 10th
@ Henry Street Settlement (265 Henry St., NYC)
Doors 7 pm / Show 7:30 pm / $60
Event includes a full concert by Clare and a 4 course meal with wine pairings
