Formed in New York in 1986, Grammy-winning Klezmatics have performed in more than 40 countries and released 13 albums to date. Their legendary Hanukkah compositions originated in the 1998 rediscovery of Woody Guthrie’s songs about the Festival of Lights, Jewish history, and spiritual life. Deftly intermingling klezmer with American folk and bluegrass, the Klezmatics cast new light on the holiday tradition by melding their original music with Woody's words for the 2004 collection "Woody Guthrie's Happy Joyous Hanukkah!"
