He has been in the klezmer scene for years, attending Klez Kamp, Klez Kanada and other workshops.  He has been a professional musician for decades and is also known as one of the finest Luthiers in the business.

Here he will be presenting selections  from an upcoming CD with a fantastic group of musicians.

Djangle Box Project plays a combination of  original compositions by Al Watsky, and traditional melodies.

They explore the intersections of Eastern European, Middle Eastern, Roma, Yiddish, dance, trance and Jazz.
