Release Notes:
Idan Rabinovici possesses a unique voice and a unique talent. A
classically trained musician, born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Idan's
story is one of travel and self-discovery. A childhood that saw
him moving between Israel and America also saw him develop a
fascination with music of all kinds, from the blues to jazz, via
early rock 'n' roll and folk. A precociously talented classical
pianist, Idan's musical abilities were further developed over
time. His love for a wide variety of music led him to pick up an
equally wide variety of instruments and adopt an equally wide
variety of styles. By the age of ten, Idan was composing his own
songs, recording them onto a battered cassette player and passing
the tapes to anyone who would accept them. Becoming disillusioned
with the rigid world of classical music, Idan left Tel Aviv at the
age of fifteen in order to study in Wales, of all places. Time
spent away from music only reinforced his love of it û though this
love had to be expressed away from the boundaries of a classical
education. Conscription to the Israeli army forced him to move
once again. It was whilst serving in the military, however, that
Idan picked up a guitar and began to pour out an amazing wealth of
emotions, capturing them in the form of songs. Idan's song-writing
has a maturity beyond his years - songs that are intensely
personal and honest, and yet universal at the same time, grounded
in a nomadic tradition. An artist searching for a sense of
belonging, for a connection with an ever changing world.
"Bedroom Folk," Idan's debut album, will be released at the end of
February 2008, followed by a tour of Idan's electrifying acoustic
performances in Israel, the US and the UK in the summer of 2008.
