Eviatar Banai height - How tall is Eviatar Banai?

Banai released his fourth album Layla Kayom Yair (לילה כיום יאיר, Night as the Day Does Shine; taken from Psalms 139:12) on November 22, 2009. It was similar in musical style to `Omed Al Neyar, while the lyrics showed Banai's deeper involvement with Judaism. The albums was produced by Amir Tzoref. The jazz musician Daniel Zamir contributed saxophone to three songs and Eviatar's father Yitzhak Banai sang on one song. In August 2013 he released his fifth album, called "Yafa Kalevana" (יפה כלבנה, Pretty as the Moon). The second single succeeded well in the charts and on the radio.

In 2004 Banai, like his cousin Ehud Banai, returned to his Jewish religious roots and became a baal teshuva. He moved back to Tel Aviv, married and had a son.

Overwhelmed by the success of the album, Banai, like many young Israelis, traveled to India to overcome it. Upon his return to Israel he settled in the desert town of Mitzpe Ramon, where he started working on his second album, Shir Tiyul (שיר טיול, Trip Song). The album was released in 1999. Its style was completely different – it had very little of the piano sound that characterized the first album and was mostly based on experimental electronic music. The reviews praised Banai's boldness and innovation, but the sales were poor and Banai retreated from public attention.

The songs on the album were produced and arranged by Israeli singer-songwriter Corinne Allal. Most of the album was based on Banai's unique melodic singing voice accompanied by a piano, some songs had strings arrangements and a few had simpler rock guitar-and-drums arrangements. The eponymous debut album was released in 1997 and the combination of traditionalist chamber pop sound with modern sounds, emotional lyrics and intricate melodies was well-received: The reviews were uniformly positive, many songs became major radio hits and the album sold over 50,000 copies.

Eviatar Banai (also spelled Evyatar or (incorrectly) Evitar; Hebrew: אביתר בנאי ‎; born February 8, 1973) is an Israeli musician, singer and songwriter.
