Oren Lavie was born in Tel Aviv, Israel in 1976. After his military service, he traveled and absorbed various cultural influences before releasing his debut album 'The Opposite Side of the Sea' in 2008. That album included 'Her Morning Elegance,' a track that gained international attention.
His second album 'Bedroom Crimes' came out in 2011 and featured 'Note to Self,' which became his most recognized song. Other tracks like 'The Passion Song' and 'A Dance 'Round The Memory Tree' show his style of blending folk and pop with electronic touches.
Lavie has worked with other artists including Scarlett Johansson and Imogen Heap. His music tends toward introspective lyrics and atmospheric arrangements rather than conventional pop structures.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
