At just 17 years old, Alona Erez possesses a musical maturity that far outpaces her years. A rising talent from Tel Aviv, Alona has quickly become one of the most compelling new voices in the industry, blending the raw storytelling of soulful pop with the elegance of jazz ballads. Music is a family legacy for Alona; she draws deep inspiration from her father, singer-songwriter Israel Erez, while forging a path entirely her own. Currently a student in the prestigious jazz department at Ironi Aleph, she balances technical brilliance with a natural, "old soul" charisma that commands any stage she steps on. Alona captured the public’s imagination during the 2026 season of HaKokhav HaBa (The Next Star), where her breathtaking performances - including a viral rendition of “At Last” - marked her as a generational talent. Having already shared the stage with Israeli icon Miri Mesika, Alona is now focused on her own original material, proving that age is no barrier to depth, soul, and artistry.
