עידן רייכל

Musician Idan Raichel (עידן רייכל), from Kfar Saba, Israel, reached enormous fame and popularity on Israeli radio with his Project (הפרוייקט של עידן רייכל), distinctive for its fusion with ballads, electronics, and incorporation of the voices of the new Ethiopian immigrant community in Israel.

Prior to the Project, Raichel worked as a highly-regarded keyboardist although he played the accordion as a child. He had achieved particular fame for his work with songwriter Ivri Lider.
