About Me |
|
| Aviv Cohen is a New York-based drummer currently active in various music scenes. Cohen was born in 1983 and began playing the drums at the age of fourteen in his native Israel. He graduated from the Jerusalem School for the Arts, and later from the Rimon College of Music in Israel. During this time, Cohen met some artists with whom he made important collaborations, among them Omer Avital, Avishai Cohen, Eli Degibri and Avi Leibovitch.Cohen moved to New York City in 2005. He quickly established himself as a much-in-demand player through his formidable technique, deep groove, and an individual, decidedly international approach that makes him sound at ease within various musical vocabularies, from straight ahead jazz to hip-hop,Rock, drum-and-bass and electronica.Cohen is the co-leader of Monstep, a modern, electronica-infused groove project from Israel that has found an increasingly international audience, especially after the release of its 2007 debut album, "The What and the Why". In New York, Cohen has been an integral part of Dana Leong's band. Leong is a multi-faceted composer/producer/trombonist/cellist and Cohen is featured on Leong's 2007 "Anthems of Life" album. Cohen has also recorded and/or performed with, among others, Yoni Rechter, Avishai Cohen, Jason Lindner, Christian Howes, Husnu Senlendirici, Martin Cohen (from Latin Percussion Productions) and Sam Barsh. He also leads his own group in NYC.With frequent appearances at top NYC venues such as The Jazz Gallery, Smalls, Fat Cat, Knitting Factory, 55 Bar, Joe's Bub, NuBlu, and the Williamsburg Jazz Festival, and increasingly across the country, Cohen is making his mark on the modern music scene, in New York and beyond. | |
