Emma Goldman said, “If I can’t dance, I don’t want to be part of your revolution.”
Daniel Kahn & The Painted Bird’s new album, “Lost Causes”, insists that we can do both.
Since 2005, Berlin/New York-based Daniel Kahn & The Painted Bird have become an international cult phenomenon that defies easy categorization. Yiddish Punk Cabaret? Eastern Borderland Folk-Rock? Alienation Klezmer?
On “Lost Causes”, their third album, Kahn mixes superb original songs such as “Sunday After The War”, “Görlitzer Park,” and “Klezmer Bund,” with his radical adaptations of Yiddish and German classics from masters such as Gebirtig (“March of the Jobless Corps”, “Avreml the Filcher”) and Brecht (“Denn Wovon Lebt Der Mensch?”). He sings of unemployment, war, resistance, love amongst ruins with a sense of urgency, relevance, heart, and dark humor.
The Painted Bird are joined by many legendary guests including Michael Alpert, Adrienne Cooper, and Lorin Sklamberg.
Rocking, tender, political, poetic, and furious, these “Lost Causes” are only waiting to be found and fought for. Daniel Kahn & The Painted Bird have proven that the revolution can dance.
