Three parts to an album born from the heart of the international wedding world singer Itzik Dadya, who currently lives in New Jersey, performs throughout the United States.
After the great success of VOL 1, which was released two weeks ago, now comes the second part of the project, which was born from his rich experience in the international wedding world.
Itzik Dadya, who recently married Esther and is focusing on building his family, regularly appears at weddings across the United States – from Miami and Los Angeles to New York, and of course also in Israel and Europe.
This unique experience revealed an interesting phenomenon to him: “One evening I perform in front of Chassidim from Brooklyn, on Monday it’s traditional secularists from Miami, and on Wednesday Lithuanians from Lakewood,” explains Dadya. “There’s one thing I’ve noticed and it’s a recurring motif: People ask me to sing my songs, but they ask why there aren’t more songs for weddings, why do the same songs keep coming back.” This insight led to the creation of “Forever” – a special wedding album that brings together all the beautiful moments of a wedding, from the chuppah to the DJ at the end. 12 brand new, never-before-heard songs, including: “Im Eshkacheich” “Chosson kmo Melech ,” “Chamisha Kolot,” “Shechina Beineihem” and more. The special gem in the second part is the moving duet “Shechina Beineihem” With Chassidic singer Beri Weber. “Beri Weber and I have been good friends for several years,” Dadya says. “We like to talk about music and Chassidism. At one of the weddings we were at, the idea came up that we might do something together.” Dadya is enthusiastic about the collaboration: “Working with Beri was a pleasure. He is a warm and hardworking person with a big heart and a great musician. In my opinion, he is truly the best singer in the Chassidic world – he has an emotion that no one else has.
We decided to make a very moving song together.”
The song, composed by Yair Shoval and expertly produced by brothers Yair and Eyal Shriki, uniquely combines words from life with mekoros. “The lyrics are based on specific sources,” Dadya explains, but there is also a beautiful combination of words from life as well, which is really modern and cool. A very moving melody from a very talented writer. “
“In general, I’m very excited about this album,” reveals Dadya, “I feel like I’m doing something a little daring here. I feel like we need these songs. It’s important to refresh the world of weddings and to refresh the chuppahs with new songs. I think it’s necessary.”
The album is being released in three parts (Vol 1, Vol 2, Vol 3) each containing 4 songs. “All the songs are beautiful, but there’s always one that’s better,” explains Dadya. “In order for everyone to get the attention they deserve, we’re releasing it in three parts so that no song disappears from the overload of information.”
