MORE ABOUT ZHOK THERAPY
Zhok Therapy is the unruly alter-ego of Maine's well-known klezmer band, the Casco Bay Tummlers. Zhok Therapy still has one toe in the klezmer tradition, but has expanded their repertoire to include Greek, Balkan, and Middle Eastern music. Adding further influences from jazz and blues, their deep grooves and improvisations are both innovative and well rooted in a rich and varied ethnicity. 'Zhok Therapy will remedy whatever ails with their cross pollinations.' Carl Dimow, flutes and guitars, Mark Tipton, trumpet, Steve Gruverman, clarinets and saxophone, Julie Goell, bass and vocals, Hayes Porterfield, percussion. (A zhok, by the way, is a type of Jewish and Middle Eastern rhythm.)
