Sound Track

Ceilizemer  (ceili, Gaelic
for Irish musical party; zemer, Hebrew 

for song) is a unique and talented group

of musicians that was especially 

assembled to create the Shalom Ireland

soundtrack.  The musicians hail from two prominent 

Northern California bands: 


Driving With Fergus 

(www.drivingwithfergus.com), a traditional Irish band from Oakland; and 


The Freilachmakers Klezmer String Band 

(www.freilachmakers.com)

a traditional Jewish band from Sacramento.  


What binds these musicians is not only their Jewish faith, 

but their love of Klezmer tunes and traditional Irish music.

The original soundtrack for Shalom Ireland combines these

musical genres, and although the result is something rarely 

heard, you won't be able to get enough of it.
