Oren Lavie is a Berlin based songwriter with curly brown hair, whisperish voice, green eyes and suspiciously cold feet. He was born in 1976, two minutes behind schedule, and has been trying to catch up ever since.
In 2007 Oren's debut album, THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SEA, was released in Europe. If you happen to live in that particular continent - buy it around the corner, behind the bakery and next to the flower shop.
In January 2008 Oren has started his own label in the US, under the name of BlueSmile (after the title of the album's closing track). On the following Tuesday he has released THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SEA on i-tunes US.
Later in the month the album was chosen to feature on the i-tunes Singer/Songwriter Spotlight.
A full physical release in the US is planned for later. Somewhere between a little later and quite considerably later. It depends, really.
THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SEA album was written and produced by Oren Lavie, and recorded in his Berlin apartment throughout a period of 3 years.
