Asaf Avidan ((ヘブライ語:אסף אבידן); born March 23, 1980) is an Israeli singer-songwriter and musician. He is also the creative force and front-man of Asaf Avidan & the Mojos, a folk rock band that he established in 2006 in Jerusalem. The band released three albums, ''The Reckoning'' in 2008, ''Poor Boy / Lucky Man'' in 2009 and ''Through the Gale'' in 2010. Starting in 2012, the Mojos band project was shelved so that Avidan would concentrate on a solo career. In 2012, he released ''Avidan in a Box'', an acoustic live album which covers older songs by him, digital copies only. He also launched his solo studio album ''Different Pulses'' in Israel, to be made available internationally in 2013. Asaf Avidan also had an international hit with "One Day / Reckoning Song (Wankelmut Rmx)". ==Biography and early career== Avidan was born in Jerusalem in 1980. His parents were diplomats for the Israeli Foreign Office, and he spent four years of his childhood in Jamaica. Avidan's grandparents emigrated from Romania to Israel. After the mandatory army service in Israel, Avidan studied animation at Jerusalem’s Bezalel Academy of Arts & Design. His final project short film, “Find Love Now”, won its category at the Haifa Film Festival that year. After his studies, Avidan moved to Tel Aviv and worked as an animator, until a breakup with his long-time girlfriend shook his world and made him move back to Jerusalem, quit his job and turn full-time to his up-till-then hobby – music. Six songs about that breakup and subsequent heartache would constitute his debut EP, ''Now That You're Leaving'', which was released independently in 2006 to critical acclaim. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Asaf Avidan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
