Using traditional instruments, the band (Yoel Ben-Simhon, musical director, oud, piano, vocals; Alan Cohen, electric guitar; Emmanuel Mann, bass; Liron Peled, drums, percussion) brings a fresh new face to Ladino and Sephardic music. Aroeste was recently featured on NPR as a new up-and-coming artist and her unique musical sound has received rave reviews from both critics and ordinary listeners alike.
