Welcome to Lil' Rev's Internet Junction

Lil Rev is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and music-historian who teaches and tours nationally, around the continental U.S. 

Known as a “protector of old songs, poetry and stories,” Rev has been called a “Wisconsin treasure,” (-Ann Schmid-UWM Folk Center). His many awards and frequent travels have garnered him a loyal and growing fan base amongst lovers of all things, Ukulele, Folk, Old Time, Harmonica, Jewish Music & Culture, American Labor History and Respect for our Elders!

Lil Rev calls his style of performance…edu-tain-ment! 

It is a combination of songs, history, stories, poems, quotes, and jokes all wrapped up in a cloak of exuberance and gratitude for those moments when we can all come together and rise up singing…and celebrate life! 

 

 
These days the gift of music finds me traveling up and down the highways and byways, from coast to coast ... teaching, performing, collecting stories, and taking in the majestic beauty that is America.  Big thanks to all of my friends, fans, and extended family who help to light my way, out on the road less traveled.

This is a one of a kind collection of Jewish and Yiddish folk songs filtered through a prism of Americana influences on banjo, guitar, mandolin, and harmonica.

-- Rabbi Larry Milder
