Influences: WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT NOMI TEPLOW:“I was very impressed with her voice, her musicianship and her captivating personality.” Yoni Rechter (Kaveret-Poogy)"Only a woman can sing 'Eshet Chayil' (Woman of Valor) this way. Listen to Nomi Teplow's rendition, the best singer that you don't yet know. Do yourselves a favor and listen to this amazing rendition of "Eshet Chayil"... In her music there is delicacy, tenderness, and attention to the inner voice, the one that always knows before we do." Maariv NRG"Nomi is very polished…The energy on stage at the Duhal Amphitheatre…[southern Tel Aviv] can light up the entire Ramat Gan [city north of Tel Aviv]." Shai Lahav, Weekend Magazine, Maariv“[Nomi Teplow] brings with her vast experience in classical music, jazz and vocal arrangement and, above all, a voice extraordinary for its quality and its abundance of color and nuance.” Itai Indik, The Observer"Nomi Teplow is a unique phenomenon on the Jewish music scene... When this soul singer gets up on stage and begins to sing, the audience is riveted with wonder for she sets a different standard, higher than anything else known to date." Roni Maimon, Besheva“Nomi is blessed with an incredible vocal quality and range and her songs are both high energy and beautiful at the same time…[She has] a special gift for writing, singing and presenting her music to the public.” Judy Caplan Ginsburgh, Jewish Entertainment Resources“I play Nomi’s music all the time. What a musical treat! Nomi has a magnificent, superbly trained voice. Nomi’s choice of texts, her moving presentation and the unique, artistic musical arrangements make this album a spiritually uplifting experience and all-round listening pleasure!” Liora Silverstein, Israel National Radio“I have never heard prayer and song with such beauty. Nomi you are wonderful! You bring passages from the Tanach and Siddur to life. I wish the whole world could experience the ancient words you bring to us in such beautiful modern song. Todah Rabah!!!” Stuart Mendel, review submitted to Jewishmusic.com“Nomi is the up-and-coming singer for the millennium! Her vocal skill and emotion are rich and exciting. Never before has someone sung Hebrew in such a way that even one who has NO idea what the song means can be touched deeply.” Judi Gitel, Educator, St. Louis, MO"Nomi Teplow...wowed the crowd with her music, dancing and glittery personality." Sharon Katz, Voices Magazine“[This] could be the beginning of a wonderful musical career for a new young singer, Nomi. Nomi has a very pleasant voice, and the arrangements are something else! ...Her phrasing on every song is as good as it gets, and even if you don't understand the Hebrew, which I don't, you get her meaning...This deserves a listen!!” Simon, Hatikva Music, Los Angeles, CA
