Behind the Notes by Neranenah Concert & Culture Series

Episode notes

Throughout singer/songwriter Matisyahu's almost 20-year career, “Jewish heritage remains a central theme throughout his life and music.” Known for his hit song One Day, which he performed at the November 2023 Israel Rally in Washington, DC, Matisyahu will talk about his religious and musical journeys. He will also share what it was like to be on the road post October 7 with his recently released album Hold the Fire and having several venues cancel his performances because of his support for Israel. In conversation with Joe Alterman, executive director of Neranenah.

This program, sponsored by Moment Magazine's MomentLive! and Neranenah, is in celebration of Jewish American Heritage Month.
