Little Chef Klezmer Band

Little Chef Klezmer Band is Phoenix’s premier Yiddish music ensemble, performing at concerts, celebrations, and community events throughout the Southwest. As the resident ensemble of the Phoenix Yiddish Culture Festival—now in its third year—LCKB presents concerts and workshops alongside nationally touring artists Jordan Wax and Miryam Coppersmith. With a repertoire spanning traditional Eastern European melodies, Yiddish-American swing, mid-century dance band music, and contemporary pop songs reimagined in a klezmer style, Little Chef Klezmer Band connects audiences across generations to the vibrant traditions of Ashkenazi music.
