Jon Madof

On Sunday May 24, join Jon Madof (guitar) and Nate Rappaport (drums, percussion, flutes) for a night of improvised music at Big Bar - 75 E 7th St in NYC. 7-8:30pm. No cover. #improvisedmusic #experimentalmusic #livemusicnyc

💥Episode 50 of “The Rest is Commentary” is with JON MADOF💥 Jon and I talk about the role of rhythm and lyrics and songwriting, spirituality, Jewish identity and jazz, Jewish musical traditions and spiritual practices, musical and spiritual growth, playing what you’re meant to play, halacha as a dynamic process, the tension between serving yourself and serving your audience, and so much more. All inspired by Jon’s thoughts after listening to “Angels Do My Bidding”, which was inspired by Psalms 54, 103, and more. The song is a teaser from my upcoming EP, which was started in a @shannainadress song sprint and will be released in Q3 of 2026. Jon Madof @jonmadof is a phenomenal New York guitarist, composer, producer, and band leader, best known for his bands Zion80 and Rashanim and his hypnotic mix of avant-garde jazz, post-punk, East African groove, and Jewish themes. Jon’s latest album, Netzach, was recorded with his trio live and is set to be released on August 14th, 2026. You can find it wherever music is streamed or sold.

Look familiar??? ‘Antizionism’ is propaganda and lies.

TBT Zion80 played at Ashkenaz Festival in Toronto in 2014. It was awesome. This song is ‘Metatron’ from the Masada Songbook by John Zorn, from Adramelech: Book of Angels Volume 22 on Tzadik Records. #zion80 #johnzorn #tzadikrecords

Some more music made by three dudes in suits in a very nice room somewhere in Connecticut. With yours truly on guitar, Yoshie Fruchter on bass and Moshe Sobol on drums. The song is ‘Lotus Feet’ by legendary jazz and fusion guitarist John McLaughlin. #jazzguitar #johnmclaughlin #jazzfusion
