Jewish music from Denmark? Coming to D.C.? See it to believe it on July 27 at Bossa Bistro & Lounge when Mames Babagenush, returns to the U.S. for the first time since 2019.

Join contributing writer Eric Althoff, as he discusses the band’s upcoming show, the history of their musical tradition, and more.
