An Israeli singer and guitarist born in 1975, Sagi-Rei moved to Italy in 1989, where he lives and works. Sagi-Rei attracted immediate attention with the release of his first album, 2005's Emotional Songs (also released as Acoustic Dance in 2006), consisting exclusively of acoustic renditions of classic dance hits from the 1990s, such as Haddaway's "What Is Love" and Snap!'s "Rhythm Is a Dancer." ~ Mariano Prunes
