The Raw Men Empire is an acclaimed freak-folk band based in Israel.
Jokingly referring to their style as "Pop Dylan", The Raw Men have been compared to the likes of Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom, as well as anti-folk artist Jeffrey Lewis, for whom they opened during the Israeli leg of his tour.
Their live shows are always a happy and kicking event. Although they are mainly acoustic, they always manage to create a rocking experience thanks to their highly original arrangements and unique interaction with the audience.
The Raw Men won Best Music award in 2010 SmallBama theater festival and have released two EPs, The Rise and Fall of (2009) & Elodie (2010), which got rave reviews both in Israel and abroad. They are currently recording their next release, due mid-2012.
Is it happy music for sad people? Or sad music for happy people? You'll be the judge.
