New music: Maoz Israel Music - First Fruits EP 1, Live from the Judean Hills

-

Shalom Messianic music fans,

Fresh Messianic music from Israel to amplify your joy this Passover season:
Maoz Israel Music - First Fruits EP 1, Live from the Judean Hills


This fresh new album, recorded live in Israel’s Judean hills,

This 4 song EP features live performances from musicians Shilo Ben Hod, Birgitta Veksler, and Evan Levine. They perform some truly beautiful work in this album. I especially love Veksler’s take on Psalm 23 in Behkol Et.

Here's a little bit about this music group:

Virtually everything you know about worshiping God, you learned from Jews who lived thousands of years ago—before musical notation and before most of today’s instruments were even invented. If the mere echoes of ancient Israel’s worship have brought the world so much light, think how much more can be received when Israel’s modern-day Psalmists are reinstated to their posts as singers, songwriters, composers and musicians.

Based in King David’s beloved city of Jerusalem–the City of Worship–we’ve dedicated our lives to see this atmosphere of worship restored to the land.

This vision is at the heart of Maoz Israel Music, a record label and fellowship of worship artists and musicians in Israel. Our modern-day Psalmists are tireless. Even the quarantine didn’t slow them down! The young musicians stuck at home remained determined to reach a place of excellence in their craft—so while other kids were watching Netflix our musicians continued their lessons online. The composers and musicians have kept on writing, and recordings in the studio never stopped.  We are building an army of worshippers and the sky isn’t our limit–it’s our destination.

Enjoy the fresh Israeli Messianic music for King Yeshua, friends!

Aviad Cohen has passed away

Friends, I’m saddened to announce that Messianic musician Aviad Cohen has passed away yesterday, according to a Facebook post from his family. I knew Aviad for many years; he contributed his music to Chavah years ago, and before that, I knew him through my younger brother when the two of them met in person by chance in Jerusalem. Aviad produced 4 albums for God, including 3 techno albums and 1 Scripture reading album: Hooked on the Truth Firestarter Good News to Mission Control Scripturesonics Vol. 1: The Good News Aviad’s last album, Scripturesonics, is a stirring Scripture reading album set to orchestral music. It’s my personal favorite. Aviad made big splashes when he, as a conservative Jew and rapper known as 50 Shekel , came to belief in Yeshua as Israel’s messiah . His public conversion made him a target for anti-missionaries and Jews who considered his belief in Yeshua to be a betrayal of Judaism. At the time of this writing, it's not clear how Aviad died. One friend says

Rick Coghill, Messianic music pioneer, diagnosed with cancer

Shalom Chavah fans, I wanted to pass on to you the news of the cancer diagnosis of Rick Coghill , early Messianic music pioneer with the group Lamb: The post reads, Dear Fans and Friends of LAMB, (Picture taken in 1973) Please keep my 20-year partner in Lamb, Rick Coghill, in your prayers. He recently contracted liver cancer and is in hospice with not much time left here on this earth. A brilliant producer and guitarist, his contribution to the Messianic movement through Lamb was priceless. Pray that his passing is peaceful and that the comfort of God permeates all around him. Ps. 23:4 – Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. I consider Lamb to be the pioneer of Messianic music, having produced several albums in the 1970s, trailblazing the genre of Jewish music for Messiah. Personally, I grew up listening to their music and still love it to this day. Their music is some
