• Daniel Kahn's group the Painted Bird is a rotating roster of Berlin and New York musicians. Together they concoct a mixture of klezmer, radical Yiddish song, political cabaret and punk folk, highlighting Kahn's amazing abilities as a songwriter and performer and the band’s fast and furious instrumentation -- accordion, piano, ukelele, violin, bass, drums, trumpet and clarinet

• Reissue of their 2006 debut album. Their subsequent release "Partisans and Parasites" is also available (RIENCD71).

• Like the grotesque Jerzy Kosinski novel from which they take their name, The Painted Bird reminds us that even if man is only an animal, he can still sing.
