Yehuda Katz –"Hodu" Music Video

New single from Yehuda Katz's upcoming album.

Yehuda Katz, musician and leader of the Jewish rock band "Reva Lesheva." Katz and his band performed world-wide, produced albums and created quality Jewish music. Then, he decided on a change of pace, as well as sound.

The first single now being released, "Hodu" generated a music video. The day that the song was recorded, Katz heard on the radio of a struggle between parents at a religious school in Petach Tikva, surrounding their opposition to the integration of Ethiopian children into the community. This news greatly upset Katz, which is
expressed in the clip, and led to his having artists from the Ethiopian community join him in song and dance throughout the recording.
