Blue Fringe is an American Jewish rock band. The band's songs cover a range of genres including pop, rock, punk and R'n'B, based around Jewish themes[1]. Blue Fringe was formed in 2003 and has released 3 albums. The band has to date sold more than 20,000 copies of their first 2 albums combined.

The band has toured in South Africa, Australia, Israel, England, and Canada, as well as every major urban market in America.[2]
