DeLEON makes “Spanish-Jewish indie rock” by infusing 15th Century Sephardic folk music with the deeply mysterious and entrancing cadences of the ancient Sephardic tradition. Their music, birthed in Spain before the Inquisition and raised in pre-WWII Italy, has finally reached maturity in modern-day Brooklyn. The band, named for 12th Century Kabalistic philosopher Moses DeLeon and front man Daniel Saks’ great-grandfather Giorgio DeLeon, reconciles Saks’ cultural journey with modern influences. They have toured with Gogol Bordello and recently completed a 20-city tour with Brazilian legends Os Mutantes.

MORGAN MURPHY has been a writer for the TV shows Crank Yankers and Jimmy Kimmel Live. She has performed standup comedy on Premium Blend and Last Call with Carson Daly; Bobcat Goldthwait cast her in his films “Sleeping Dogs Lie” and “World’s Greatest Dad,” with Robin Williams. She has toured with The Comedians of Comedy and Aimee Mann’s Xmas Extravaganza, and is currently writing for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

SETH HERZOG hosts and produces a weekly show called Sweet, at the Slipper Room in New York, where he performs alongside his mom as well as his old buddy Michael Showalter. He has had small roles in the films “Safe Men,” “The Ten” and The Baxter, and has appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Chappelle’s Show and VH1’s Best Week Ever.
