Zach Mayer was the first artist to headline a concert for the Boston Festival of New Jewish Music. Back in October, 2021, Zach and his band graced us with the music of "Zamru." Now, he's back with a new album for us to enjoy.

"Zeh Hayom — Hebrew for “this is the day” — contains original melodies for Hebrew texts that are particularly meaningful to me."
