GEVA ALON IN CONCERT: SJFF 2008

MOHAI
Seattle, WA

13TH ANNUAL SEATTLE JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL

ISRAEL@60 ROCKS! MUSICAL PERFORMANCE BY GEVA ALON (INDIE FOLK ROCK)
MOHAI McCurdy Gallery: Thursday, April 10, 9:00-11:00 PM

Emerging from the quiet countryside of Israel, Geva Alon is a founding member of the Israeli rock trio The Flying Baby. Their albums, "Inner World" (2003) and "Pain to Give" (2005) on Blue Sun Music ushered in a faithful gig-packing fan base. In contrast to their hard-rocking sound, Geva has been playing hundreds of solo acoustic performances in cities from Tel Aviv to New York and San Francisco, showcasing his more intimate, melodic and personal songs. His solo albums, "Days of Hunger" (2006) and "The Wall of Sound" (2007) of dominate original material, all in English, amalgamate blues, folk, rock and even country styles. Critics say he is the best guitarist currently in Israel as he "Manages to sound like an entire band with a guitar, harmonica and tambourine". Even his cover of the David Bowie pop tune Modern Love is nothing short of haunting and brilliant.
