It's that time of year again. The busy holiday season is upon us, and, along with it, like every year, the musical festivals which are held all throughout the country.
In addition to the popular and returning Arad Festival and Hatamar Festival, which both host a slew of famous artists and draw large audiences, this year new types of indie music and alternative rock festivals will take place in Kibbutz Parod, Haifa, and in the indie capital of Israel, Tel Aviv.
The largest festival will be held during the Sukkot holiday at the Tzavta Theater in Tel Aviv from October 1 to October 3. The festival, titled "Helem Krach" (City Shock), will include special performances such as a tribute to Berry Sakharof 's "Signs of Weakness" in which various artists will perform songs from the album.
In addition, Neti Weissman, the veteran musician who was formerly an "S.O.B." band member together with Rami Fortis and Sakharof will debut his new album "The Alchemist". Weissman also took part in Fortis's album "Plonter" (Knot) and was a member of the groups "Zvuv" (Fly) and "Maim Chamim" (Hot water).
Other special performances scheduled to take place: Yaheli Sobol will hold a show in which he will perform revamped versions of all his favorite alternative artists. The group "Carusela" (Carousel) will host Amir Lev.
