Black Ox Orkestar

Montreal, Québec

Black Ox Orkestar plays modern Jewish diasporic music that draws from Klezmer, Romani, Arabic, Balkan and other Eastern European folkways, through the lens of indie rock, experimental folk and avant-jazz sensibilities. The band combines interpretations of instrumental traditionals with original compositions sung primarily in Yiddish. Formed in 2000 in Montréal, disbanded in 2006, reunited in 2021.
