Pop/Rock World Fusion

About Us:
HYIM “HYIM is a formidable talent...spellbinding.” --San Francisco Chronicle “An emerging talent worthy of the designation of world musician” --Village Voice Media, New York City HYIM’s pop/rock-world-fusion music is the vehicle for his message – peace, joy, evolve, be sexy, be kind and celebrate life! HYIM’s father, who started teaching HYIM piano at the age of three, was shot and killed when HYIM was only ten years old. It is this tragic moment that inspired HYIM to create such powerful, visionary music. Oakland California raised, HYIM’s diverse musical influences include Bob Marley, Peter Gabriel, Chopin, Bob Dylan, Eddie Palmieri, Chris Martin/Coldplay and of course, his Dad. When you see him perform, this world-traveled singer-songwriter makes mind-blowing live loops on percussion instruments, voice, keyboard and guitar. Without a doubt, it is the piano, his original passion and for which Yamaha sponsored HYIM, that is the foundation of this artist’s gift. With a look compared to a Harry Connick Jr., a voice compared to Sting and a sound akin to a new-school Peter Gabriel, Beck, Manu Chao, and Michael Franti, HYIM clearly brings the uplifting vibes to the masses through his epic live shows and through his recordings, as heard on his three self-produced albums (Let Out A Little Peace, HYIM & The Fat Foakland Orchestra, and his most recent Sex In The Morning). The three versions of HYIM’s digital release, Ten Thousand Words, (Radio Edit, Acoustic and Dubfire Remix) are available on iTunes and other online stores, and its music video is joyful, inspiring and vibrant. “Go where the love is….” HYIM’s new album, “Love Songs in Times of War 1,” is coming soon. HYIM (who was named after his grandpa and means “Life” in Hebrew) is a healer through and through, as he holds both a Masters in Psychology doing work with youth in numerous settings (juvenile hall, foster care, addiction, etc) and is certified as a Reiki practitioner doing body and energy work on those in need. When not healing others behind the scenes or during a live show, HYIM is a producer and activist and continues to write and record his music to share with the world… http://www.hyimvibe.com http://www.facebook.com/HYIMvibe http://www.facebook.com/HYIM.MUSIC http://twitter.com/HYIMvibe http://www.myspace.com/hyim Available on iTunes: http://www.iTunes.com/hyim Best Buy: http://www.bestbuy.com Amazon: http://www.amazon.com Family Productions Label
