Yerachmiel

YERACHMIEL is a prolific songwriter, and blends many musical styles and influences. Above all, his songs are enveloped in spirituality and with panorama of intense emotions, ranging from forlorn and depressed to ecstatic exuberance and yearning. His 21 song album OFF THE DERECH expresses great changes in his personal life and outlook. A window into the journey of love and loss, a change of identity and a spiritual perspective. Facing self-doubt and finding self-acceptance and growing in love. There is a good dose of social criticism and cynicism to match his optimism and longing for peace, love and harmony. Yerachmiel manages to weave poetic thoughts and ideas into music styles and genres. From the tender age of seven as a child in a religious boys choir, YERACHMIEL has been touring, recording, filling seats in auditoriums while filling our hearts. He has appeared in numerous TV and radio shows and toured with MATISYAHU and has shared the stage with legends like JOAN BAEZ and SHLOMO CARLEBACH. To date, he has 6 studio albums, 20 singles and has appeared on over 50 albums.
