Head to Brooklyn for an afternoon with Matisyahu!
Grab a friend and enjoy an hour long bike ride with Hasidic Reggae superstar, Matisyahu, or stroll through the streets of Brooklyn with Matisyahu and chat about religion, music, life, and more! Or perhaps you'd like to sit down for lunch at Esther's Party Grill?
Whichever you choose, your day will be one to remember!
Few artists make an impact as complete as the one Matisyahu made with his Top 40 hit “King Without a Crown”: Here was a true original, the song announced—a Hasidic Jewish musician from New York City singing reggae songs about his religious devotion. Fans responded to this one-of-a-kind voice, driving Youth, Matisyahu’s Grammy-nominated 2006 studio disc, to the top spot on Billboard’s reggae albums chart. That album, as well as Matisahu’s previous recording "Live at Stubb’s," went Gold. His new album, "Light," which debuted in the top 20 on the Billboard charts, is out now on Epic Records. Produced by David Kahne (Paul McCartney, Regina Spektor, Sublime), Matis recorded the album in Brooklyn, NY and Jamaica and got an assist from several guests Stephen McGregor, Sly & Robbie, members of Fyre Dept. and Fishbone, and others.
The result is a bold new direction for an artist who has transcended cultures and genres.
Matisyahu prides himself on his close relationship with his fans, and has excelled at using today’s social networking tools to keep fans apprised of his whereabouts while on tour, as well as encouraging them to promote change via his “One Day For Change” partnership with Kenneth Cole. Matisyahu becomes the first American musician to utilize Posse, a unique ticketing platform that allows fans to promote Matisyahu shows on their social networking sites, when he embarks on a 40 date tour this Fall.
