Noah Solomon, the lead singer of the music group Soulfarm, grew up next door to the late Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach in the village of Modi’im, Israel. Carlebach, known as “the singing rabbi,” had founded the village, which spawned numerous bands.
“Rebbe Shlomo taught me how to sing a song as a vehicle,” Solomon said recently. “He believed the music was not a goal but a vehicle to get to a higher state of consciousness. I very much believe the same thing.”
