The fantastic Listen Up! packed our theater on a January Sunday afternoon. The production was first-rate, the stories were touching and funny and compelling but the singing topped everything: soaring voices blending into lovely, heartwarming, rousing music. We'll book them again as soon as dates become available. נפלא!

"Steve Singer and Listen Up! were the headliners at our synagogue's Israel at 70 gala. The group was the embodiment of musical joy and delight, immediately engaging the audience with their lively presentation and jaw-droppingly beautiful harmonies. Listen Up! is family friendly and Israel-positive, enabling people of all ages to celebrate with worldwide Jewry and develop community solidarity. The band played without a break for well over an hour, and stayed at the reception afterwards to visit with everyone. One loyal fan (age 5) and her mom even flew in for the day for the performance! It's easy to see how Listen Up! attracts their fans. Steve is a pleasure to work with and everyone in the band was charming and personable. I cannot recommend this group highly enough! I can't wait to hear them again."
- Joy Rosenberg, Temple Beth Shalom, Santa Fe, NM
"Working with Listen Up! was a delight. They were willing to think out-of-the-box in finding ways to engage all ages. They were fun, friendly, and easily approachable. The tunes were memorable enough that it gave the opportunity for new fans to sing along. I would love to work with them in the future."

- Rabbi Hannah Greenstein, Milwaukee Jewish Federation
"Hiring Listen Up! to perform at our synagogue for our spring fundraiser was a success, and the performers were a joy to spend the day with! Our audience enjoyed the afternoon concert and left wanting more! Listen Up! spent the morning singing with a few of our children’s groups prior to the concert and had our Hazzan join them on stage! What a DELIGHT!"
- Amy Cytron, Adath Jeshurun Congregation- Minnetonka, MN
"When I first heard Listen Up!, I actually couldn't believe it! I am here in America, but feels as I am back home, in Israel. The songs and the group's the beautiful voices made me very emotional. Magic moments that you all have to experience!"
- Lior Kakon, American Friends of Israel War Disabled Foundation
