Shuli Rand found fame in the ’80s and ’90s, before translating his filmic flair into a singing career influenced by the teachings of Nachman of Breslov, the founder of the Breslov Hasidic movement. The acclaimed balladeer has since entertained both secular and religious audiences, weaving jazz and English folk influences into his dynamic sound. With a gravelly, offbeat voice to rival the wails and growls of Bob Dylan or Tom Waits, Rand’s romantic waltzes sit alongside songs lamenting perceived lapses in faith and tracks chronicling Jewish history.
