Shiri Maimon first made an impact on European audiences with her outstanding performance at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest, singing the ballad “Hasheket Shenish'ar (The Silence That Remains)” in both English and Hebrew. She's flirted with Western pop aesthetics ever since. Her self-titled debut went Gold, followed by three albums that combined her mighty voice with heart-rending melodies, visceral pop ballads, as well as more upbeat R&B/dance pop grooves. In 2016, she released a stripped-down version of Sia's “Chandelier”, cementing her place among Israel's stars.
