Hassidic Girl Rock Band Makes Waves Across US

Something new just began in the United States. Something that until yesterday, this reporter had never fathomed would come to be.

A Hassidic alternative girls rock band, which goes by the name of “Bullet Proof Stockings,” just finished their first US national tour, which came complete with sold out performances across the country and even some home concerts in people’s living rooms.

This new trend of Hassidic Jewish women who wish to create a safe space for other women to be able to “rock out”, whether they are Jewish or not, has been picking up steam across the nation.

The morning after finishing their first national tour, ‘Bullet Proof Stockings’ shared their story with Arutz Sheva.

“What we are trying to do is create places for women to feel safe to have fun,” said Perl Wolfe, who plays the keyboard, sings leads vocals and writes for the band.

The rest of the band is comprised of Dana Pestun on the violin, Dalia Shusterman on drums and backup vocal, and Elisheva Maister on the cello.

“One woman shouted at us during a gig, “What is this? Goyishye rock music?”

We of course answered yes!” said an excited Wolfe.
