Shulem Lemmer: The First Hasidic Singer to get a Major Record Label Deal

Inspiration for the Nation is the weekly Jewish podcast from Living Lchaim, hosted by Yaakov Langer.Shulem is the most recent rising star of the Jewish musical tradition that has been intertwined in the life, faith, and culture of the Jewish people throughout their history. Whether it's prayers, psalms, or contemporary classics, this youthful Brooklyn tenor finds in music something rich and affirming, an endeavor that makes the soul soar and the spirit rise and speaks to the human condition. In fact, Shulem feels music aspires to go beyond current historical context to illuminate what he sees as the perfect dream: when the world is at peace. There are some voices that have to be heard – and Shulem’s is one of them. We discuss coping with the loss of his sister, dealing with challenges, the recent rise in antisemitism, how Shulem, a hasidic man, got a deal with a massive record label and what steps to take to change the world. *SPONSOR LINK*  Achas Sha’alti 3 is here!
