Maor Cohen

Maor Cohen (מאור כהן; born 1 May 1974) is an Israeli singer-songwriter, composer, musician, actor and comedian.

Career
In the early 1990s Maor led the influential rock band Zikney Tzfat, and since the band's breakup he has been the lead singer in several musical groups, most of them together with his former bandmates. In addition, he starred in the TV series "Mesudarim" and in the shows "Eretz Nehederet", "My Nephew from Hell" and "HaParliament", for which he was also writing, and won the Israeli Academy of Television Award for screenwriting. Since 2011 he is also known as the spokesperson for Domino's Pizza in Israel.

At the beginning of his musical career, he was dubbed by the media as "the rock wunderkind of Israeli rock" due to the charismatic live performances of Zikney Tzfat as part of the Tel Aviv alternative rock scene back then. Some of the projects featuring Cohen include humorous or "nonsensical" motifs in the spirit of Zikney Tzfat's performances, such as a song with only one word ("Ricky" by Zikney Tzfat), songs sung in a childish (Duo Reot)

As a solo artist Cohen has released four acclaimed solo albums, a mini album and a double compilation album, and he performs frequently alongside Peter Roth in parallel to his solo performances. His hits as a solo artist include "The Most Beautiful In the World", a cover version of Ilanit's song "Weekday Song", "You'll See Again", "What Is Known About This Day" and "City Night".
