Internationally-recognized klezmer ensemble Ezekiels Wheels brings passion, virtuosity, and contagious energy to every performance. The Wheels improvise with the intimacy of chamber music and the intensity of a rowdy dance band. They are equally at home on the stage of the International Jewish Music Festival, where judges heralded them as a true musical democracy, as in the classroom, where sixth-grade student Jonathan raised his hand to tell them, Yall got swag.
The Wheels unique style was forged in the subway stations and farmers markets of Boston, where the informal setting and ever-changing audience created an ideal environment for musical experimentation. In 2012, they won first place in the Boston Jewish Music Festival's "Klezmer Idol" competition. With a brand new EP under their belt, they won both the jury-awarded City Winery Prize for best klezmer ensemble and the Audience Pick Award at the third biennial International Jewish Music Festival in Amsterdam.
