Maor Cohen

There are not many musicians in Israel who can be said out loud that they are excellent actors, and more than that: great comedians.

Maor Cohen is one of the few who possesses this unique and wonderful combination.

Anyone who has seen "Parliament" and "Arranged" knows that this is true.

In light of this, he puts on a new show that is not a rock show nor a stand-up show, but a "stand-up rock" show - a combination of stories and funny pieces and the great classics he wrote as part of his solo career, Safed Elders, "Flies", "Blains" and more And more.
