Born:
I was born in Tel Aviv Israel November the 23rd 1966. I studied piano at the conservatoire of music from the age of 9. By the time I was 14 years old I begged my parents for a drum-kit. Within 2 years I settled for a makeshift drum-set. At 17 I studied the drums for 2 years with The David Rich drumming school in Tel Aviv. I came to London to pursue my studies at Guildhall.

By 1999 I started writing and recording. Once I had written enough material that I was happy with I sent a demo to John Zorn

by Eyal Hareuveni
