Avishai Cohen was born in Israel in 1970 to a family of musicians. Soon studying piano, but it happens to know below the legendary Jaco Pastorius. Leave Tel Aviv to go to the big target that is New York. Played with Latin Jazz bands, the Panamanian Danilo Perez and lends well to form group, an orchestra of different influences, where there are echoes of Chick Corea, with whom he collaborated.
Avishai has often been claimed as a side: Alicia Keys, Bobby McFerrin, Roy Hargrove, Herbie Hancock, Nnenna Freelon, Claudia Acuna, Paquito D'Rivera, has performed with symphony orchestras in Israel, Boston. In deciding to form own group had already released four CDs.
In 2003 he created his own label Razdaz Recordz (sic), always with a creative and exploratory thinking. Avishai Cohen is above all a composer who continues to work with old and young artists. Also we have seen with Amos Hoffman, Itamar Doari, Shai Maestro, or Karen Malka, a vocal full of possibilities. The Aurora CD, Cohen has come to the essences, including voice, Avishai sings in Hebrew, English, Spanish and Ladino, her voice speaks of life, love, freedom and youth.
