Boaz Sharabi

Boaz Sharabi (born in 1947 in Tel Aviv) is an Israeli soul singer, writer and
composer.

Sharabi began playing the drums at age 10. From the mid to the end of the
60’s he was the drummer for several pop bands, and sometimes sang as well
in rock-style bands. Sharabi received his first publicity in 1971. In April that
year his first song made it to the radio, “Pamela”, which he sang in English.

In 1986 Sharabi participated in the pre-Eurovision competition with the song
“I Wish” that he composed to Ehud Manor’s lyrics. In 1994 Sharabi received
the “ACUM Reward” for life work. In 1998 Sharabi’s album “When You
Touch Me” was released, produced by Koby Oshrat. The theme song of the
album, which Sharabi composed to Ehud Manor’s lyrics, was a big success.
That same year Sharabi’s song “To Give” was selected by soldiers of the IDF
and the armed forces as the most loved song in Hebrew singing in ‘Galey
Tzahal’’s “Fiftieth parade”. Sharabi released several songs with the queen of
Hebrew singing Shoshana Damari, such as “Light” and “You”.

In December 2006 Sharabi released “If You Still Love Me”, a first single
from his album “To Breathe” which was released on February 2007. In 2011
Sharabi released his 13th album, “The Magic Touch”.
