Beth's refreshingly lo-fi sound combines liturgical Hebrew and original English texts with a contemporary folk-grass-roots feel. NOT your typical synagogue worship music.
Bio / Background
Beth Hamon is a bicycle riding, car-eschewing, autodidactic singer-songwriter whose original material and cover choices straddle the fuzzy line between Jewish and secular themes of social justice and peace. She serves as a music-leader at Havurah Shalom in Portland, where she delights congregants with her vibrant, rhythmic guitar playing and her rich, earthy voice. She is also on the faculty of Temple Beth Israel Religious School in Portland.
Beth has over twenty years of teaching experience in high school instrumental music, Judaic Studies and Hebrew.
She also serves other Jewish congregations and camps as a clinician and artist-in-residence; has appeared at Hava Nashira (the Jewish songleaders’ festival and workshop); and is a repeat performer at the Northwest Folklife Festival’s annual Jewish Show in Seattle.
Beth is available to lead worship services and facilitate Jewish text study and music workshops; and performs in venues large and small.

"There's nothing else like it! It's bright acoustic pop and folk, performed with hearty, honest joy." --Tom Petersen, Victory Review
