Sounds Israeli: The music of ‘Fools of Prophecy’

I had the pleasure of seeing the band Shotei Hanevuah (Fools of Prophecy) perform live during my first and only trip to Israel prior to making Aliyah, and I’ll likely forever associate their sound – a fusion of dub reggae, hip-hop, dance and eastern Mediterranean music – with the magical time when I first fell in love with Eretz Yisrael.

Here’s a very raw version of their hit song ‘Ein Ani‘, performed in front of an IDF unit in 2012.
