The Bench rescheduled the launch for Tuesday, October 15. Same place. Same time.
This site focuses mainly on overseas bands performing in Israel, but I recently discovered an Israeli band, The Bench, which sounds as good or better than many international bands.
The Bench are celebrating the release of their latest album, “Wet Dream” with a concert on Tuesday, October 1st, at Reading 3, in Tel Aviv. Tickets are available from Eventbuzz — only NIS 90 (or go with your partner and get two tickets for NIS 160).
I don’t know much about the band, except that I’ve been listening to their music on Spotify and YouTube non-stop for many hours.
According to what they wrote on BandCamp, The Bench was formed in 2011 by two 16 year-old kids: Or Ben Izhak (Bass), and Raziel Mantzur (Lead Vocals). They started playing music on a bench at their neighborhood.
Today, The Bench consists of 4 members with the addition of Or, Raziel, Lior Izhaki (Drums), and Matan Shatit (Lead Guitar).
The Bench members get their kicks out of rock’n’roll, Motown and groove.
Check out this concert from two years ago at Barby.
And check out The Bench’s new album, “Wet Dream” on YouTube or Spotify.
