Contrary to popular belief, Golem is neither a towering Jewish Frankenstein who defended the Jews of 17th Century Prague, nor a creature from Lord of the Rings. Golem is a 6 piece Eastern European folk-punk band.
Golem’s JDub debut, FRESH OFF BOAT, is available now. Produced by Emery Dobyns (Patti Smith, Antony and the Johnsons, the Battles) and featuring Mike Gordon of Phish, Amanda Palmer of The Dresden Dolls, and Lenny Kaye of Patti Smith’s band! Get Fresh Off Boat on itunes or at the JDub store (for $8.99!).

But you must be doing something in New York in June? Specifically June 16-20? Right? ...Right? Gogol Bordello and Golem not within my short New York holiday picture, that's a disappointment :(
Hey there Golem. We are hitting up the LES tonight 8PM at the University Settlement 184 Eldridge Street (corner of Rivington). We truly hope to see you.
