Socalled (Jewish Cowboy) – Concert
West End Cultural Centre – 586 Ellice Avenue
$15 Members & Non-members (Advance Purchase) | $20 at the door

Montreal based Yiddish hip-hop (yes that’s right!) artist Socalled is an unstoppable creative force: accordion player, pianist, singer, rapper, and composer. His unique blend of klezmer, hiphop, and funk erases boundaries that separate cultures, eras, and generations. Samples of Yiddish classics from a bygone time backing fascinating lyrics about love and belonging and more in both English and Yiddish make his surprising music as fun and danceable it is moving and evocative. Socalled is a Juno nominee, the star of a feature length NFB documentary and has played Carnegie Hall (twice!). He has written a puppet musical and a hip-hop Passover Seder. Joining him on stage will be long-time collaborator and mesmerizing vocalist Katie Moore as well as the talented Michale Felber on bass, and Nizo Alimov on Trumpet. This is sure to be an unforgettable event!
