About Me

What's up?My name is Erez Aviram and I know nothing about computers..so I'll try my best to customize this page...anyway.I play Piano & Keyboards for "Audience". When I was still in High School...(which was only few months ago) I met a childhood friend of mine, Dotan Cohen, who played guitar and had a band called Z-Row (which consisted of him and our soon-to-be drummer Boaz Dekel).I was a young classical pianist who knew nothing of progressive rock so we decided to join together and try to make music ...everything was going quite well but we needed a drummer.Boaz Dekel answered the call because he had nothing else to do...or some shi* like that...anyway, Dotan and I already wrote a concept album and we came to the first rehearsel quite ready and challanged Boaz with all the changes in time signatures and tempo...he threw a stick on me. It hurt.So now, they're both in the army and I'm at home, playing my classicl music and writing lyrics and such, waiting for the next rehearsel and try to find new jokes about how much shi* they need to put up with in the Israeli army.... (Big2km) ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------- "Audience" consist of Ben Antar with his 6 strings monster Bass, Boaz Dekel on the drums and 2098309568209358 cymbals, Dotan Cohen with his vintage-sound-like guitar and Erez Aviram on the Piano. The band focuses on playing a large variety of music genres but mainly, music that sounds not only good, but great. Each of the band members musical education was different and they are influenced by different styles and genres....for example, Dotan Cohen is influenced by Jazz and Prog-Metal and Erez is influenced by Classical Music. The band is currently recording their first concept album (Composed by Dotan Cohen and Erez Aviram) which is an Rock Opera and entitled "Paintings". The album is due to be released in early 2008. ----UPDATE---"Audience" with "The Who"
