Church of Reason (Knessiyat Ha-Sekhel) hails from the southern Israeli town of Sderot, a frequent target of missiles from Gaza. Their quixotic name comes from Pirsing’s iconic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. The band journeys from gypsy and rock music through classical, Jewish and Balkan vibes, blending old and new for a delightfully fresh sound. Their American premiere features an exciting collaboration with a string quartet from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music.

A program of the JCCSF and the Israel Center of the Jewish Community Federation, presented in partnership with the Consulate General of Israel and the Jewish Community Relations Council.
