"I used to paint and do sculpture," says Renno (aka Ran Shem-Tov), founder and lead singer of the ecclectic Israeli rock band, Izabo. "But then I picked up a guitar, and I never went back."
The band's 2003 debut LP, The Fun Makers, garnered huge critical acclaim, and spawned two national hit radio singles. Izabo soon signed to Sony BMG, which released their British debut, followed by a European tour. Throughout their career, Izabo's musical style and range have embraced styles as diverse as indie rock, disco and Middle Eastern music.
