Zusha
Zusha is an American Hasidic Chabad folk rock/world music band from Manhattan, New York. Formed in 2013, Zusha consists of lead vocalist Shlomo Gaisin and guitarist/vocalist Zachariah Goldschmiedt. Their music pairs traditional Hasidic nigunim (wordless vocal melodies) with elements of folk, rock, soul, jazz, ska, and reggae. They have performed at venues including the Bowery Ballroom and the Knitting Factory. Their 2014 self-titled debut EP reached No. 9 on Billboard's World Albums chart, while their debut album Kavana (2016) reached No. 2 on the same chart. Their song "Pashut" appeared in trailers for the 2017 film Menashe, while another song, "Yoel's Nigun", was sampled by rapper JID for his 2022 single "Dance Now".
