Brivele is a Seattle-based ensemble who braid together Yiddish song, anti-fascist and labor balladry, folk-punk, and contemporary rabble-rousing in stirring vocal harmony.
Reviews
“I love how their singing is an act of gathering in. They gather songs from fields of labor and battle long ago, then re-purpose, re-compose, and re-translate them into our own time, our own stories and struggles. ”
“Brivele’s gift as a band is their ability to go between the dark and the light, the serious and the witty, all with a deep sense of tradition, and abandon of tradition. ”
