Einat Betzalel

Bio:
Einat Betzalel was born to a Yemenite mother and Bulgarian father on a Kibbutz in Israel – a collective agricultural community in the countryside.
Einat began to perform at age 6 and continued developing her passion for music and art throughout her youth. Upon reaching the age of mandatory army service, Einat was accepted to the prestigious Military Entertainment Unit. She performed throughout Israel, Europe and the Mediterranean for two years. Einat completed her studies at the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music and went on to work with the top artists in Israel.
Over the years, Einat began to write original texts and music. Her unique style was born through the blend of her cultural roots, the special way of life on the Kibbutz, her exposure to Israel’s vast array of cultures (from Russian to Yemenite) together with musical influences such as Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Fiona Apple, Erykah Badu and more.
Einat Betzalel’s present album was brought to fruition through a collaboration with her brother, Eyal. Einat brought the soul and funk grooves and Eyal, the Arabic-Gypsy-Folk sounds. Through this partnership, Einat’s individual sound was created.
Einat is influenced by the concept of “giving” which was a primary value on the Kibbutz. She and her music have matured in light of her inspirations: love, belief, truth, nature, people and life experiences. Einat describes it as “the wonderful harmony of God”.
