“Street Shofar Man” has gone international. Michael Brous, aka “Sexy Shofar Man,” spent the period preceding last year’s High Holidays walking the streets of Los Angeles, blowing a shofar, a traditional bugle made from the horn of a ram or kudu. This year, however, Brous traveled all the way to Israel in order to spread the shofar’s eternal message of peace and new possibility.
In a new video, he can be seen blasting his kudu’s horn in such varied locales as Jerusalem’s Old City, a Bedouin village, and a Tel Aviv night club.
The video was produced in conjunction with IKAR, an organization which describes itself as “a progressive, egalitarian Jewish community, driven by a passionate belief in the relevance of the Jewish tradition and its power to infuse our lives with meaning and purpose.”
