Mark Rubin, co-founder of the legendary Bad Livers, is a folk singer and multi instrumentalist who proudly bills himself as the “Jew of Oklahoma.” A pioneer of the Americana movement and lifelong genre-bender, he fuses bluegrass, klezmer, country, punk, and blues into a sound that’s equal parts tradition and rebellion. Called "one of the great Jewish musicians of our time" by the Weitzman Museum, Rubin's plainspoken songs mix sharp humor with a protest singer’s bite, carrying forward both his Jewish heritage and his Oklahoma roots. On stage with his banjo and guitar, he’s as comfortable in a honky-tonk as a synagogue hall, always delivering raw, unvarnished truth.
