Howdy from Azle, Texas!
 

Howdy everyone! Name's Azle Klezmer. Born in Austin, raised in Azle, I am 16, coming on 17, and I love music. That being said, I come from a family of musicians (well... On my dad's side, at least :)), and I myself actually play a couple instruments, the mandolin and the Anglo concertina. As far as musical tastes go, I'm a fan of klezmer, fado, Irish trad, classical, and... Wait for it.... heavy metal!

I hope to get to know you guys and share in the wonderful world of music!

Welcome aboard! :)

Who are some of your favorite metal bands? And can you recommend some good klezmer albums to check out?

As far as metal bands go, Janzsoon, I like Eluveitie, Metallica, and a bit of Manowar. My brother is an avid metal head, so I kinda took on some of his tastes. As for klezmer albums, I can't I have any in my CD collection, but if you don't mind doing some digging around Pandora or iTunes, some of my favorite klezmer artists include Naftule Brandwein, Dave Tarras, and a couple of bands, Melech Mechaya and Brave Old World.

Thanks! :)
