Los Angeles-based band Distant Cousins (originally a Jewish band) just landed their song, “Are You Ready (On Your Own )” in the new film, “This Is Where I Leave You.”
For a decade, band-members Dov Rosenblatt and Duvi Swirsky have been Jewish rock stars. And now, throwing their hats into the ring of mainstream culture, their secret weapon may be Ami Kozak, who, like Rosenblatt, grew up and went to a yeshiva high school in northern New Jersey. The Berklee College of Music graduate, who studied with Paul Simon and John Mayer, specializes in creating and producing songs for commercials.
Kozak has a standout, high register voice, Swirsky's vocals have a cool swagger, and Rosenblatt's tone envelops you in tenderness.
