Live concert
by Moshav.
Jewish soul. Rock energy. A sound that brings people together.
From their beginnings in Israel to stages around the world, Israeli-American rock band Moshav brings a musical story all its own. Founders Yehuda Solomon and Duvid Swirsky grew up making music together in Mevo Modi’im before taking their sound to Los Angeles and beyond.
Their recordings include “World on Fire” featuring Matisyahu. Come discover them live—or sing along with a band you already love.
