Shabbat Shira Service Features Special Guest Michelle Citrin

At just 5’1, it’s hard to believe that such a powerful voice could come out of Michelle Citrin. There is a reason why Time.com recently listed Michelle in their Top Ten list of “New Jewish Rock Stars” and the Jerusalem Post called Michelle “The Jewish IT Girl.”

Michelle is best known as the creator and star of viral video hits including “20 Things to do with Matzah,” “Call Your Zeyde,” “Rosh Hashanah Girl,” and “Hanukah Lovin.” Michelle’s viral video successes have led to media coverage in The New York Times, The Huffington Post on Good Morning America, CNN, and CBS as well as being featured on Yahoo.com’s homepage! 

Fully independent from any record label, Michelle has sold thousands of copies of her albums. Her engaging live performances and talent for writing catchy and meaningful songs have garnered rave reviews and numerous accolades; including being named one of Billboard Music’s “Top Songwriters”, VH-1’s Song of the Year finalist, Great American Songwriting Honor, and finalist in Sony Music’s Future Rock Competition. Extensive international touring has resulted in a rapidly growing, devoted grassroots fan base. She has shared the stage with Grammy Award winning artists Michelle Branch and Dave Koz, Gold selling artist Matisyahu, and Tracy Bonham.

Whether playing in front of a sold out crowd of thousands on the beach of Tel Aviv or an intimate set at a coffeehouse in Melbourne, Australia, Michelle Citrin’s soulful voice, skillful guitar playing, humorous in between song banter, and unpretentious demeanor have captured the eyes and ears of her audience all over the world. Michelle Citrin is living proof that size… really doesn’t matter!
