Mi Yodea means 'who knows'?

Mi Yodea is-

Phil Isaacson- Digi-Horn, Clarinet, Alto Sax

Ovadya (M Hurley and Linda Wolf)

Tradition with a twist. We play Jewish music from everywhere as well as some originals. We don't know Hava Nagila- maybe some day we'll get to it. But in the meantime we work on Salim Halali, Naftule Brandwein, Israeli music, chassidish music etc. etc. just trying to make some sense of it all. What's next? Who knows?
