The Afro-Semitic Experience
The Afro-Semitic Experience is a Cross-Cultural band that delivers a positive and meaningful musical message about Black-Jewish relations.

The Afro-Semitic Experience is an ensemble dedicated to preserving, promoting and expanding the rich cultural and musical heritage of the Jewish and African diaspora. Imagine a band that understands and can present interpretations of music from traditions as rich as Gospel, Klezmer, Nigunim, Spirituals, and Swing and you have the Afro-Semitic Experience. This is a group that is as comfortable playing a freylakh as they are swinging a blues, that knows how to playing either a bulgar or some funk. Multi-cultural soul.

Through our concerts, recordings and workshops, we are actively creating an artistic response to anti-Semitism and racism of all forms. This is our ongoing mission and it is of central importance to us.

The Afro-Semitic Experience has performed at festivals and major venues throughout the Northeast United States. Some of the more well known venues and festivals include: the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Detroit Musicfest: Festival of Jewish Music, The Greater Hartford Jazz Festival, The New York Noise Festival and The International Festival of Arts and Ideas.
