If you know artists singing in Yiddish please answer to this thread. Also have a look at the list bellow and confirm those that you know for sure that sing in Yiddish. Thank you.

Moni Ovadia is an Italian artist of Bulgarian/Sephardi origins, although he was early established in a yiddish cultural ambient. At least, his disc "Oylem Goylem" (Yiddish for "The world is dumb") has for sure songs sung in Yiddish.

edit: NOT STREAMABLE

most of the artists mentioned above really sing in Yiddish. although there are some names that I don't know, so I'll be sure to check them soon to see if they're really Yiddish.
also, I wouldn't tag Fortuna as Yiddish, 'cause she's a Sephardic singer, singing mostly in Ladino.
Oi Va Voi is a debatable case too, although they may have Jewish origins, together with Yiddish band name and some Jewish influences in their music, what they play is actually a fusion and they do not sing in Yiddish, as far as I know.
I also doubt if יהודית רביץ sings in Yiddish.

Thank you very much, zhaltvyksle.
As it becomes obvious that you know more than us in this domaine, and if tartalo, the leader of the group let me ask you, would you mind lending us a hand?
We focus in language use, so instrumental music as (exclusively instrumental)klezmer would not so interesting here. For the same reason we usually take care than the language is really used and not limited to the song titles.
Don't take this as a mandatory task, if you provide us with one or two bands that really sing in Yiddish it would be perfectly enough.

Regards,

PS we have also a Ladino thread.

Nikitov

Shura Lipovsky
Salomon Klezmorim

Ot Azoj
Di Fidl Kapelye

And a couple of others that are not yet on last.fm but maybe in the future.

Thanks everyone, I have added the artists you all confirmed and removed them from the list of unconfirmed artists (unless error). I also tried to put together what seem to be just different spellings of the same artist.

Further help will be welcome.
