Orly Bendavid is a New York City- based songwriter and performing artist whose voice has been described as tender, piercing, and warm, her songs quirky, earthly and folksy. She has performed in venues and radio stations across the country, sharing the stage with: Matthew Davies (The Thriftones), Joe Pug, Ryan Suzuka, Jus Post Bellum, and Pete Galub.
In 2016 Orly Bendavid released her first album “Mona”. Mona is a collection of character portraits, “Christine,” about a washed-up former model encountered at a bar, “String Bean,” inspired by an unknown anorexic teenage pop star, & “Oh God” delving into the depths of addiction, and the of shame it creates. In general, the lyrical repertoire hangs elusively simple words around cryptic stories of heartbreak, longing, and relationships. Musically, Orly Bendavid & her band :The Mona Dahls knit the lyricism of the violin in conversation with the tender and terse cadences of Orly’s own voice. Their music at once evokes the sounds of Parisian cabaret, the Appalachian hill country, and the Middle East.
Their first album Mona was released on May 20, 2016 . Produced by Huw Price (David Bowie, Primal Scream, Nick Cave, Ian Dury, Fad Gadget and My Bloody Valentine).
