Six 13 Presents a Nice Jewish Boy Band Chanukah

The video "Six13 Presents: A Nice Jewish Boy Band Chanukah" presents the timeless Chanukah story and its traditions through the lens of a late 1990s Y2K-era boy band. Parodying iconic turn-of-the-millennium hits such as "I Want It That Way" by the Backstreet Boys, "It’s Gonna Be Me" by *NSYNC, and "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls, the video combines nostalgic tunes with Jewish cultural themes. 

Incorporating humor, the video features references like a “BPA-free dreidel” and “greasy latkes until they’re nice and tan,” exemplifying how Jewish culture and traditions can be expressed through modern music and entertainment mediums to better resonate with contemporary audiences. 

Six13, an a cappella group renowned for its creative adaptations of Jewish music, has performed at a variety of venues, including synagogues, schools, JCCs, and private events worldwide. They have also made notable appearances on NBC’s The Sing-Off and at the White House for President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. Through a combination of musical talent and cultural pride, Six13 has captivated audiences of hundreds of thousands worldwide.
