Haparvarim

Israeli folk duo founded in 1960 by [a1908067] (born in Baghdad, Iraq) and [a2951958]. The duo briefly became a trio in 1965, when Jimmy Siman Tov (of Turkish background) joined the band, but he left six months after joining when he fell in love with an audience member while on tour in South Africa. In 1977, Nissim became religious and decided to stop appearing on weekends and performing romantic material, leading to his replacement by [a4450376]. During 2017 Ori Harpaz left the duo and was replaced by [a6136313].
