Picture of Joey on a hike

If Joey could be doing anything in the World right now, he’d be singing a forty-five minute nigun with his friends, deep in a forest, or maybe at the top of a mountain, or maybe in a super acoustic cave . . . or maybe he’d be writing his website bio.

Joey is a prayer and song leader based in Chicago. He leads regularly at Edgewater Minyan, Trad Egal Shtiebel, and Rose Crown Minyan at Anshe Emet Synagogue. He also hosts Minyan T’Hom, a mediative, song-intensive minyan at his apartment.

Joey has studied at Pardes, lived and worked on the Adamah farm, staffed summers at BCI, spent months hiking off-the-grid in places like Utah and Patagonia, and dabbled in silent meditation retreats in places like Isabella Freedman and the Amazon rainforest.

Joey also works as a lawyer and can confirm that reading caselaw and reading Gemara have significant overlap.

Joey is excited to share his debut album: Still Small Voice
