Album Notes

Shawn Zevit, (www.rabbizevit.com) originally from Winnipeg and Toronto, Canada, now resides in Philadelphia, PA. He has been a singer, songwriter, actor, perfomer and liturgist for over 20 years- performing concerts, interactive music and theater events, and weaving song into a variety of performance, teaching and consulting venues around North America and the world. He is also an author, playwright, poet and spiritual leader. He is also a founding member since 1995 of the musical group "Shabbat Unplugged" based in the Delaware Valley (see http://www.jrf.org/pub/cat-passoversongs.html) for more info.

Shawn's music draws on many styles from folk to indie rock to traditional Jewish music to rhythm and blues and beyond. His CD "Heart and Soul" takes you through the world of prayer, longing and a celebration of life, using universal themes with a contemporary interpretation and sound. Many of the songs have found their way into worship services across North America and are performed by other singers and musicians.

Produced in Philadelphia at Radioactive Productions, "Heart and Soul" builds on Shawn's songs and rhythm guitar work, with the excellence of leading independent musicians.

Once you have welcomed this CD into your home- you will find yourself returning to it again and again for inspiration and introspection, to move and dance, and celebrate the passages of life!
