Yoav Eshed started to play the piano at the age of 3 and became a child prodigy playing classical recitals by Haydn, Bach and Mendelssohn at the age of 5. He picked up the guitar at the age of 13 and found his unique way of playing the guitar with a pianist approach. After winning competitions worldwide and receiving the presidential scholarship to study at Berklee, Yoav moved to Boston to finish his studies and shortly after to NYC where he is considered one of the city's most unique guitarists.
