notes

Simcha Kanter and his band have recently released their second album titled Lag B’Omer Live, recorded on Lag B’Omer in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. After building a strong fan base with their first release Wellsprings, the band has continued to develop a musical style that sets them apart, with this second live release featuring a more uptempo feel that captures all the excitement of a live concert.

In addition to their usual repertoire of Chabad niggunim, Lag B’Omer Live features three original compositions by Simcha with English lyrics, in addition to a special version of “Bar Yochai” that they arranged for the show. The lively rhythm section provides a perfect match for Simcha’s catchy arrangements, capturing the authenticity of the niggunim while translating them into a different medium than anything done before.

Several songs from Simcha’s first album were featured in films by Jewish Educational Media (JEM), including The Jewish Woman and One – Chabad’s Response to Natural Disaters, and made their way to Jewish and college radio stations all across the country – and Lag B’Omer Live promises to deliver the same.

Lag B’Omer Live is distributed by Aderet and is available at Judaica stores everywhere, as well as online from the band’s website www.simchakanter.com. Look for free promotional discs being distributed in your area!
