Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Kobi Farhi, frontman and co-founder of Orphaned Land, to Raven Records.
A pioneer of ‘Oriental Metal’, helped create a distinctive sound that fuses heavy metal with Middle Eastern musical traditions, folk melodies and religious themes. Beyond the music, he has devoted his life to promoting peaceful coexistence between Jews, Muslims and Christians, earning multiple peace awards for his work.
His debut book, The Jewish Muezzin, tells the remarkable true story of his journey from growing up in Jaffa, surrounded by conflict and division, to founding one of the Middle East’s most extraordinary musical acts: . It is a story of defying prejudice, breaking down barriers and using the power of heavy metal to bring people together.
Signed copies of The Jewish Muezzin published by are available in store and online from our webstore at the link in bio.
