Fountainheads – Light up the Night

The Fountainheads, a group of Israeli student musicians known for many songs associated with the Jewish holidays composed this “hip-hop/gospel tribute to religious freedom” in the following work, “LIght Up the Night.” 

“You can always find something controversial and gray and ugly and problematic [to write] if you want,” one opera singer associated with the Fountainheads told Harretz. “But that is not what we want to get into. Our idea is just to create a fun, positive, bright embracing Jewish identity that people can connect to and feel good about, and leave complications aside for the moment. What our music is about is connecting to Judaism and the holidays and making people smile.”
