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.”
