Queer Jews Project Day 3 - Debbie Friedman

Composer, singer and songwriter, Debbie Friedman was not very open about being gay during her life. She did write and perform absolutely amazing songs though. Like I can’t overstate her influence on religious jewish music, especially for the Reform movement. Her Mi Shebeirach is still played in countless synagogues. This performance of Miriam’s Song and Not By Might is one of my favorites.

Not good for CPR: the song is slow and relaxing, the two things you don't want for CPR. It's difficult to keep track of the beat upon recall due to a lack of on beat intensity. 84bpm is too slow.

I knew she had some ties to Wisconsin but I never knew about this phase in her career.

I am ashamed to say that I just had to google who that was, but in my defense I never really listened to much Jewish music growing up!
