  • Bio

    From A Window To A Wall was recorded and mixed by renowned ..Greg Weeks.. (The Espers) at his studio in Philadelphia. The Album was released in the US with Language Of Stone on June 17, 2008 .. Some press .. .."...Aptly reflecting this sadness, Babayof's voice stands out with tones that are soft, meandering, and beseeching. Her music isn't conventional folk—instead, it taps into a new-age element that drips with spirituality, lulling vibes and an often heart-piercing surge of emotion."(....Global Rhythm....).. .."...Deep, lush arrangements and earnest delivery coupled with Noa's strong melancholy voice make this album a true folk gem. Subtle orchestral swells elevate Noa's songs to buoyant and breezy despite their heartbreaking nature. Full of leaf-filtered sunlight and crisp breezes cutting across gravestones, her album is both beautiful and sad in a way that can't extricate one feeling from the other". (....Raven Sings The Blues Blog....).. .."...Nothing has captured my attention quite like Israeli singer/songwriter Noa Babayof...Babayof's haunting voice brings to mind Joni Mitchell, Nico and even Marissa Nadler. She is writing some of the saddest songs this side of Leonard Cohen..." (....Heeb Magazine....).. .."...I dont think i have heard a voice as glorious and haunting as noa's in many a year. simply put, the record is absolutely gorgeous and really quite romantic..." (....Captains Dead blog....).. .."Striking work by this Israeli singer-songwriter, possessing a willowy, chilling voice and milky lower register, delicately accented in the style of a femme Nick Drake channeling Nico, that lends a spectral presence to this gorgeously arranged set...Thrilling both instrumentally and in its welcoming, outstretched ambiance, its gentle, mildly unsettling facades chase the sun down with a bewitching drive..." (....Other Music....).. .."Writing all her own songs, she evokes a sad yet arresting timelessness which brings to mind Sandy Denny, Vashti Bunyan, early Joni Mitchell and more contemporary SSW's like Marissa Nadler. But with those comparisons aside, Babayof's got a rich, warm voice and her intensity is heightened by the dramatic string arrangements on the album, and the lull, exquisite pacing of the songs". (....Some Velvet Blog....).. .."Haunted and haunting, Israeli singer/songwriter Noa Babayof's voice falls somewhere in the spectrum between Sandy Denny and Nico, with the former's wistful strength and the latter's exotic deadpan. There's a crystalline quality that hangs suspended in the ether, yet scythes through the strange melancholy of her songs; imagine a shimmering chandelier in a funeral parlor". (....Philadelphia CityPaper.Net....).. .."It's Vashti Bunyan with a touch of Mazzy Star and maybe a pinky of Rasputina's macabre peculiarity. The album's standout, no doubt, is Noa's wraith of a voice, which sounds something like Nico after a 10-year coma." (....Philadelphia Weekly....).. .."Israeli songstress brings timeless beauty to Philly"..."The story of how that album — From a Window to a Wall — came to be seems, in a way, to threaten any kind of myth or legend surrounding Babayof, whose music is steeped in a peculiar and ancient beauty that would seem to transcend modern life altogether. But with just one listen, it becomes clear that her music is indeed something timeless, something that exists beyond our efforts to classify, categorize, and mystify.".. (....The Northeast Times paper....)..
