Bio
How do you define Jewish song? Listen Up! Jewish Vocal Band’s four vocalists--Sari Greenberg, Steve Singer, Freddie Feldman and Eli Taylor--radiate the joy and pride of being Jewish and having a special connection to Israel. The Chicago Tribune raves, "What comes across in every moment of their performance is an adoration for singing — turning melodies and harmonies on their heads to come up with something unique and full of freshness and appeal. When redefining musical rules, it helps to be good — and Listen Up! is very good, lacking nothing in imagination and the ability to sell their vision of a song.” Chicago’s uniquely compelling Jewish vocal band has twice won Best Original Arrangement in the Harmony Sweepstakes and is a Best Religious Album nominee of the Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards. Their music videos have garnered more than a half-million views on YouTube and their “Adon Olam” cover of Pharrell Williams’ “Happy” can be heard in Shabbat services in synagogues across the US. Recent projects include a stirring music video to raise funds for victims of terror attacks, an “Avenue Jew”-worthy musical collaboration with Chicago’s Puppet Mechanics. Listen Up! calls Chicago home as the house band—without instruments—of the Greater Chicago Jewish Festival for the past 25 years.
