Home About News Shows Music Video Press Gallery Team Contact Forums About missFlag is a Rock-Pop-Indie band from Jerusalem that creates music in English, reminiscent of today's popular British rock bands (Coldplay, Radiohead, Keane, U2). They have now completed the creation of their debut album 'To Infinity', which was produced by the talented and renowned L.A producer Guy Erez (The Gipsy Kings, Ryan Cabrera, "Crash" Soundtrack) and are ready to make their mark. (You can now purchase the album from the official website [link="www.missFlag.com"]www.missFlag.com[/link] or [link="www.myspace.com/missFlag"]www.myspace.com/missFlag[/link]. Within the last six months missFlag have toured twice over ten states in the US. These tours were funded by the Israeli Foreign Ministry who have chosen missFlag to represent Israeli culture and its ability to produce cutting edge western music. The reaction of the press to missFlag and their performances has been very exciting: Jerusalem Post: "With star-quality songs, stage presence and musicianship. Someday you'll be able to say you saw missFlag 'back when'." L.A. Times: "This band from Israel covers some of the same ground as Coldplay with the kind of sing-along choruses that could appeal to a large audience. Singer Ohad Eilam has an accessible sincerity and, in "Hidden Thieves," when the keening guitar enters on the final chorus, providing a diversion from the center of focus (the piano) one can imagine a concert hall of swaying bodies." Boston Globe: "missFlag brings a beautifully shambling sensibility to the epic chord changes and winsome melodies." (You can find the full articles in the Press Section). The band has been receiving extraordinarily positive feedback from the international music industry since they completed the recording of their debut album at the beginning of 2007: * Universal Records invited missFlag to LA for a private showcase. * CBS have placed their request to use two of missFlag's songs on the credits of their famous TV series CSI NY and CSI Miami. * Nic Harcourt, the notorious DJ from KCRW who is known for breaking new acts in the US such as Coldplay and Dido has recently been playing missFlag's song 'Hidden Thieves' on his Radio show "Morning Become Eclectic". * missFlag have been planning their album release campaign in the US and have been gaining the interest of many professionals in the industry. * On MySpace (the world's biggest and most influential international music website), the band has achieved great success, boasting tens of thousands of fans and hundreds of thousands of plays to date, and as such, missFlag are MySpace's biggest Israeli band. * Hed Arzi, Israel's leading record company, have recently offered the band a distribution deal in Israel. Dedicated and determined to become the first Israeli band to reach widespread international recognition, missFlag continue to make huge progress and also blaze trails on the Internet, even though they are currently completely independent with no record label or other funding organization standing behind them.
