Four questions:

1. Who are you?

My name is Eliana and I work as a Jewish educator in Boston, MA. I grew up in a wonderful Jewish household going to Jewish schools, camps, and programs, and now I want to give back. Teaching tfillah, Jewish prayer, is my passion, and music is the way I communicate and make sense of my Jewish world. Check out this G-dcast for a sample song of mine!

2. Why is this Jewish music different from all other Jewish music?

The music that I write engages with Jewish holidays, history, language, tfillah, and Torah, all with a midrashic, interpretive, spin. It not only teaches in its own right, but inspires others to take Torah into their own hands and interpret for themselves. This is music that empowers as it entertains. Also, it rocks!

3. How is this going to happen?

I've got the songs and the voice: Now I just need to record. I'll be working with Scott Leader of Brick Road Studio in Pheonix, AZ. All money raised will go to recording, mixing, mastering, packaging, whatever it takes to get this music out there in style!

4. What can I do to help?

Please give! Every little bit counts. And you'll get the music. It's amazing, I promise!

Please share! With Jewish music lovers, educators, Rabbis, friends. This music can't just exist on CDs. I want to travel, and bring this music and my creative tfillah programs to people wherever I can!

With your help, we can cause a new light to shine.

Thanks and Blessings,

Eliana
