How to Book The Jews Brothers Band for a Performance
Updated
The Jews Brothers Band handles booking through the Booking section of its official website, jewsbrothers.com. That page is the intended starting point for event organizers, venues, and promoters who want to hire the band. The site's navigation lists "Booking" alongside Home, Music, Videos, and About, so you can reach it directly from the main menu rather than searching through news or media pages.
What the site tells you about the band
Before you send a booking request, it helps to know what you are booking. The band describes its sound as spanning several traditions at once:
"It's not klezmer, it's not Celtic, it's not blues, it's not chanson, it's not gypsy, it's not swinG ... it's all the above: it's The Jews Brothers Band!"
That description comes from a quote attributed to CHADASHOT, the Auckland Jewish Press, and appears on the homepage. In practical terms, the band positions itself as a cross-genre act rather than a single-style klezmer or swing group — useful context if you are matching them to a festival, cultural event, or private function.
The homepage also promotes a current release: Polaris, described as a "NEW ALBUM OUT NOW," with a "Vanguard Set" and a "Watch Video" link. If your event has a promotional angle, referencing the current album gives you a concrete talking point in your inquiry.
Steps to make a booking inquiry
- Go to jewsbrothers.com. The homepage loads with the band name as the main heading and the navigation menu (Home, Music, Videos, About, Booking).
- Open the Booking section. This is the page the site provides for performance inquiries. It is listed in the same menu as the other main sections, so no account or login is needed to reach it.
- Use the contact method shown there. The site's own description of the Booking section is that it contains the information for getting in touch about a performance. Follow whatever contact details or form that page presents — the homepage itself does not publish booking contact details, so the Booking page is where that information lives.
- Include the essentials in your message. Even though the site does not spell out a required format, a booking inquiry is only actionable if it states the event date, location, type of event, expected set length, and your budget range. The band's genre-blending repertoire means you may also want to note whether you want a specific set (for example, material from Polaris or the "Vanguard Set").
- Confirm through the reply. Treat the initial contact as a request, not a confirmed booking. Availability, fee, and travel are settled in the response.
What to check before you write
| Question | Where to look |
|---|---|
| Is the band a fit for my event? | The homepage quote and the Music/Videos sections |
| What are they currently promoting? | Homepage: Polaris, "NEW ALBUM OUT NOW," "Vanguard Set" |
| How do I contact them about a show? | The Booking page in the main menu |
| How do I follow their schedule? | The "Jews News" signup on the homepage (email, first name, last name) |
The homepage's news signup is for band news and gig dates — it is a mailing list, not a booking channel. Use it if you want to track where the band is already playing, which can help you judge their touring range before you inquire.
Common snags
- Looking for contact details on the homepage. The homepage excerpt does not include booking contact information; it only points to the Booking section. Go there first.
- Assuming a form exists. The site confirms a Booking section exists but the excerpt does not show whether it is a form, an email address, or a phone number. Check the page itself rather than expecting a specific format.
- Expecting instant confirmation. Nothing on the site indicates automated scheduling or instant booking. Plan for a reply-and-negotiate process, especially for dates close to the band's existing gigs.
If the Booking page turns out not to list a direct contact, the About section is the next place to look for management or representation details.
