A music website is offering to help people find bands in Irish, German, Italian and Jewish music. The website is called
SimchaTree.com. I haven’t tried it myself, but apparently this website allows you to enter your Jewish affair particulars (date,type of affair etc.) and you get free quotes from bands, orchestras etc.. They compete for your
business. It also features plenty of information on live music presentations, as well as how to be your own DJ.
A Chasidic female recording artist, Chana Fellig, is putting together a CD compilation of Jewish female songwriters. She’s interested in hearing from women and girls who write original songs or “who has dreamed of being a singer, who writes songs, plays an instrument, composes melodies etc. The songs can be a collaboration of a few talents.” If you are interested in submitting a song to her, please email her directly at chanale@hotmail.com
