Eran Tzur - A true Rock Poet

Eran Tzur is one of the most respected Israeli singer-songwriters. He writes lyrics in Hebrew that touch the invisible border of poetry and rock style. With his special low vocals, he tends to deal with key issues in Israeli society in Hebrew like Israeli identity, Jewish identity and sexual identity.

Starting his career in the late 1980s, Eran joined Tatoo band, together with friends Yuval Mesner, Uri Balak and Alona Daniel. Later he established the well-respected Carmela Gross Wagner. Tzur wrote most of the songs for the band's two LPs, including hits like Kaitz, Perach Shachor and Erev Bet Kislev.

Eran solo career spreads from the mid 1990s to today, with five successful albums, diverse collaborations with various artists and countless performances all over Israel. He's well known for dealing with poets' songs and recorded a whole album of Yona Vollach's songs.

Tzur has been awarded in two appraised prizes for Hebrew Poetry.
