Jacob’s Ladder, Jewish Bluegrass Band, and Berkalit, a capella group

January 27,  2024  Temple Israel of Boston

A long-time friend of music lovers at Temple Israel of Boston, Jacob’s Ladder returned home to help us celebrate Shabbat Shirah with an album release concert, featuring special arrangements from their new album. Formed in 2019, Jacob’s Ladder seeks to push the boundaries of contemporary Jewish music and traditional American Roots music within the context of Jewish communal singing and prayer. In combining these two identities, they tell their Jewish stories through music. Jacob’s Ladder was joined by BerKalit, an a cappella group from Berklee College of Music that sings Jewish music, bringing an additional dimension and spiritual scope to a wonderful evening.
