Popular Israeli Music

“Israeli music is one of the most amazing things we have in Israel – and people in Israel love music. Our music style is very unique because it is full of combinations –for example, one of my favourite artists came from Greece to Israel and his music is a combination of Greek and Israeli styels. There have been so many different influences on Israeli Rock and Pop that make it unique and there are many mainstreams of music. “ Ohad Eliyahu, an Israeli of Iraqi descent who recently moved to Edmonton.
