8th Day, a band co-founded by California brothers Bentzi and Shmuel Marcus, is

quickly becoming Jewish music’s hottest new act. Their mega hit, Ya’alili has more than

2 million YouTube views. The group’s most recent studio album, Hooleh!, has topped

the Jewish music charts since its release.

8th Day’s fresh and unique sound is complemented by their catchy lyrics (mostly

English with some Hebrew and Yiddish mixed in) and their spirited vocal harmonies.

They have played hundreds of shows across the globe, including Lincoln Center,

American Airlines Arena (Miami) and many more.

“8th Day’s music appeals to a wide variety of people, regardless of age or religious

affiliation,” said Rabbi Dov Oliver, Director of the Center for Jewish Life. “We invite

everyone to join us for a beautiful celebration of Chanukah.”

The concert will also include a performance by the Shiru Lo Children’s Choir, as well as

a Chanukah menorah candle-lighting.

Rockland Community College and the Cultural Arts Theater are fully wheelchair

accessible.
