Kaveret
Kaveret ( Hebrew: כוורת to German " beehive " ) was an Israeli rock band in the 1970s. She was known for their often humorous lyrics and their musical style.
Kaveret was founded in 1973. Several members met already, as they together performed their service in the Israeli army. In 1976, the group was dissolved. Afterwards the former members Gidi Gov and Danny Sanderson founded with vocalist Mazi Cohen and even other musicians, the group initially Gazoz and later another called Doda.
Many pieces of Kaveret were an integral part of Israeli culture and are even today the new generation of Israeli youth familiar.
