MIQEDEM
Miqedem (the ancient Hebrew word for “of old” or alternately, “from the east”) is a band whose music is best described as Israeli indie folk, with heavy influences from Middle-Easten and North African music styles, often utilizing microtonal scales, irregular time signatures, and regional instruments. Hailing from Tel Aviv, Israel, Miqedem’s music reflects a recent resurgence of interest in regional music within the Israeli music scene, a trend found in artists such as Riff Cohen, Yemen Blues, A-Wa and many others.
Miqedem’s most unique contribution is their exclusive reliance on ancient Hebrew Scripture in their lyrics, drawing most heavily on the poetry of the Psalms.
The band includes : Jamie Hilsden, Yaron Cherniak, Shai Sol and Vadym Sokolyk.
Formed in 2015, the band has toured extensively across North America and Europe, has released two full-length studio albums, and on February 2nd they will release their third album, “Eshkona” (I will rest).
