| A-Trak & Diplo Heart the SMF! |
The New York Sephardic Music Festival (NY-SMF) showcases a minority within the minority. NY-SMF seeks to increase interest in and awareness of Sephardic culture, including Mizrahi, Yemenite and Ladino traditions, highlighting the diversity that exists within the Sephardic branch of Jewish culture and history. Artists at the forefront of both the traditional and the contemporary Sephardic music scene will perform during the eight nights of Chanukah, from December 16 through 24. Opening night will be at Makor showcasing Pharaoh's Daughter and will mark the anniversary of Y-Love, an Aramaic/Yiddish/Arabic and Hebrew rapper, live. Closing night will be a the 2nd of Modular's Hip Hop Sulha series which features top-selling Israeli hip-hop artist Shaanan Street of HaDag Nachash (whose last U.S. tour sold-out coast-to-coast); Palestinian rapper SAZ (who has been the subject of two documentary films); Jewish American beatboxer Yuri Lane; Orthodox Jewish rap sensation Y-Love; turntablist sensation; DJ Handler; and the frontmen of two of the West Coast's leading Palestinian hip-hop outfits, Ragtop of the Philistines and Omar of the N.O.M.A.D.S. All the nights in between are filled with exciting shows and will take place at the hottest NYC venues such as Joe's Pub, Tonic, and BB Kings.
