Klezmer Punk Cabaret meets American Gothic with a booming dose of vocal beats! The Painted Bird concocts a mixture of Klezmer, radical Yiddish song, political cabaret and punk folk. Fronted by brooding singer-songwriter Daniel Kahn, the group releases its second disc Partisans & Parasites, a set of Yiddish-tinged songs haunted by the subterranean worlds of Nick Cave, Will Oldham and Kurt Weill. With Yuri Lane, a virtuoso beatboxer and actor who is pioneering the art of Beatbox Theater.
