Englewood—Bergen Performing Arts Center will present The Maccabeats in concert on Wednesday, December 14 at 7:30 p.m. Ticket prices range from $19 to $79 (VIP) per ticket. VIP tickets include a meet and greet with the performers.
Often travelling with little more than the shirts on their backs and the ties on their necks, The Maccabeats have entertained and inspired hundreds of audiences worldwide, from Alabama to New Zealand and everywhere in between. Using nothing more than the unadulterated human voice, a clean-cut presentation, and a little Jewish humor, this unique group of singers is able to connect with fans of all backgrounds and ages.
Originally formed in 2007 as Yeshiva University’s student vocal group, The Maccabeats have recently emerged as both Jewish music and a cappella phenomena, with a large fan-base; more than 20 million views on YouTube; numerous TV appearances; and proven success with four albums, 2010’s “Voices From The Heights, 2012’s “Out Of The Box,” 2014’s “One Day More” and 2015’s “A Maccabeats Hanukkah.”
The Maccabeats perform an eclectic array of Jewish, American and Israeli songs. Their breakthrough piece, “Lecha Dodi,” combines some of the most beloved words of Jewish liturgy with Leonard Cohen’s meaningful and melodic “Hallelujah.” They’ve played sold-out shows to thousands across five continents and over 30 states and provinces. They’ve been invited to join reggae superstar Matisyahu and Jewish music superstar Yaakov Shwekey on stage as well as to Gracie Mansion by NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg. And they’ve been invited to the White House by US President Barack Obama.
