New Single - "The Esther Song" Featuring Alicia Jo Rabins
Dearest Thumpers,
We are so excited, just in time for Purim, to release the first single off our upcoming album "The Revelation Will Not Be Televised," "The Esther Song." We had the immense pleasure of working with the crazy-talented and oh so cool Alicia Jo Rabins. (You may know Alicia from the punk-klezmer outfit Golem or her art pop project on incredible biblical women, Girls in Trouble. They will both rock your world and we highly recommend checking them out!) She added so much depth and richness to this tune, and we can't sing her praises enough.
And now, the song. It's taken from a moment in the Book of Esther when Esther realizes she can't just sit there and let the world fall apart. In the song's refrain she says, "For how can I endure the evil that shall come unto my people? How can I endure destruction? How can I stand back and watch my kindred suffer?"
Of course she can't, none of us can. She stands up to the king, in front of the King. Where we see the world crumbling - be it as big as an earthquake in Japan or as (seemingly) small as a friend who needs a shoulder to cry on - you do what you gotta do.
Here's hoping this song will be a call to action, and a call to empathy. May we not stand idly by.
