Friday Night Jam & Fans.LIVE Detail High Holidays Musically-Inclined Services

Once again, The Friday Night Jam and FANS.live will present spiritually and musically inclined High Holidays services on Rosh Hashanah, Kol Nidre and Yom Kippur. Rabbi Daniel Brenner will lead the services with Jeremiah Lockwood serving as musical director for a full live band that includes Jordan McLean and Timothy Allen of Antibalas, Yuli Beeri, John Bollinger and Stuart Bogie.

Rosh Hashanah services will take place at Brooklyn Bowl in New York City on Sunday, September 25 at 7:30 p.m. ET and Monday, September 26 at 10 a.m. ET. Tune in via FANS.live with a select number of tickets on sale through Ticketweb (September 25 / September 26) to attend in person.

Each service will include a mix of live music and remote video contributions. Dave Harrington (Darkside), Alex Bleeker (Real Estate), Dan “Lebo” Lebowitz (ALO), Eric Krasno (Soulive and Lettuce), Karina Rykman, Ross James (Terrapin Family Band), Aron Magner (Disco Biscuits) and Josh Kaufman (Bonny Light Horseman) are among those confirmed to participate remotely. Lenny Kaye will perform as part of the service on Sunday, September 25 with Leslie Mendelson, Eric Slick (Dr. Dog) and Armo making appearances on Monday, September 26.

“We have said for years that Brooklyn Bowl is our sanctuary, clubhouse, church and synagogue, so it only makes sense that it has grown into the spiritual home for our musically inclined Rosh Hashanah services over the years,” stated Relix’s Editor-in-Chief Mike Greenhaus in a press release. “Especially at a time when so many of us have been apart from our friends and family due to the pandemic, we hope that our suite of traditional-but-open-minded-and-inclusive services will allow us to connect with each other as we ‘begin again’ at the start of this new year.”

The Kol Nidre service will originate from The Relix Studio on Tuesday, October 4 at 7 p.m. ET with the Yom Kippur service broadcast from the same space on Wednesday, October 5 at 10 a.m. ET. All services can be viewed for free via FANS.live.
