Avraham Abish Brodt (Born June 10, 1947 Cracow, Poland) is an American Hasidic Jewish chazzan (cantor). As a singer, he is best known for his collaboration with composer and singer Shmuel Brazil of Regesh.

Early life and career[edit]

Abish Brodt's family originated in Mielec, Poland. The town's Jewish musical heritage was associated with the Ropshitz and Sanz Hasidic dynasties.[1]

As a youth, Brodt attended High Holy Days services at Beth Medrash Elyon in Monsey, New York where he was influenced by the Tefillos of its Rosh Kollel Rabbi Simcha Schustal. As a result of this, Brodt's later work was said to have been a blend of Hasidic and Yeshivish elements.[1]

Brodt was the cantor at Agudas Yisroel Bais Binyomin[2] in Midwood, Brooklyn for 30 years, before moving to Lakewood, New Jersey in 2017.[1] He was a featured performer at the 10th, the 11th[3] and the 13th Siyum HaShas.[4][5]
