The Klezmonauts: "The Klezmonauts Destroy Tsunami"
Released in 2013, Mike's newest band takes original and traditional klezmer to the cosmos. Improvisation and instruments like the sitar, sarod, cajón, and dumbek, give the recording a freewheeling, international flavor. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/theklezmonauts1
