Eli Degibri |

"Don’t miss him. He commanded attention when he toured with Herbie Hancock. He is a very modern improviser, superartful; his creations are spiky and fractured but immaculately sculptured." - Ben Ratliff, The New York Times |

Third World Love |
|
|
Third World Love began four years ago in Barcelona for a one-time tour that instantly developed into a unique brotherhood, co-led by the "strikingly talented" (Entertainment Weekly) Omer Avital on bass, trumpeter Avishai Cohen, a "gifted improviser whose nu-bop asthetic glances around the globe to see what rhythms can be added to the formula," (Village Voice), Daniel Freedman, whose “drumming retains a sumptuous authenticity, as if he learned everything from the dusty street of some South America or Africa urban center” (Modern Drummer), and pianist Yonatan Avishai, who has been hailed by the Israeli magazine Ha’ir as a "genius pure and simple." |

3 Cohens |
|
|
Yuval, Anat and Avishai Cohen are siblings from Tel-Aviv, Israel. They grew up with parents who shared and supported their passion for music. As children, they studied music at the same conservatory and schools for the arts. They practiced at home, together and separately (but still within hearing distance of each other), for years. In the process they got to know each other’s musical instincts extremely well. |
