Deborah Conway and Willy Zygier discuss their new CD “The Words of Men” and their forthcoming Epic Tour around Australia, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of “Epic Bitch”. Also mentioned are their 3 daughters Syd, Alma and Hettie, who have all taken on careers in theatre, music and TV and singing back-up vocals with their parents’ bands, as well as singing with “YID!”, a 22-piece band lead by Simon Starr. The family also performed together singing Yiddish in “Play Me A Poem” at The National Theatre.
