The most obscure band in Jerusalem

I bet you didn't know there was an underground scene in Jerusalem (at least not an underground music scene; you've probably heard of some other undergrounds that operate here). Here's a little bit of Middle East insider poop for you: what's the most obscure underground band in Jerusalem? Answer: Dolly Weinstein. A fivesome (formerly a sixsome, sometimes foursome) of folk rock and rock standards, featuring yours truly on bass. Other writers are notable for playing in not very good rock bands -… Continue
