Asaf Avidan

PLAYING IN THE BLIND TIGER DOWNSTAIRS AT BODEGA:
101 Ghuznee Street, Wellington, Fri Feb 26th 2016, 8pm doors open

Having toured over the globe, Israeli folk-rock singer-songwriter and musician Asaf Avidan has built up a devoted following as well as a reputation for a legendary live show. Born in Jerusalem on March 23, 1980, he grew up in places like Jamaica and New York. In 2006, he recorded his debut EP, Now That You’re Leaving, a six-track record dealing with his breakup with his long-term girlfriend. To promote the self-released EP, Avidan put together a backing group and went on to perform as Asaf Avidan & the Mojos. Avidan’s first full-length album, The Reckoning, followed in 2008, followed by Poor Boy/Lucky Man in 2009. After their third album, 2010’s Through the Gale, the Mojos disbanded to pursue several solo projects, and Avidan continued to perform acoustic shows (documented on the 2012 download album Avidan in a Box). In 2012, Avidan released a new album entitled Different Pulses. His second proper solo album Gold Shadow was released worldwide in January 2015.

“With his new poetic album Gold Shadow, Asaf Avidan can be anointed the next Leonard Cohen. – Dave Faulkner, The Saturday Paper, Feb 2015
