Israeli Orthodox singer Ishay Ribo announced this week that he will headline his first concert in New York City\u2019s Madison Square Garden in September.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ribo, 34, posted on Instagram a flyer for his Sept. 3 concert and wrote in part in the caption, \u201cI\u2019ve been holding this inside for a long time, and more than once I\u2019ve pinched myself to check if I was dreaming or if this is true. Thank God, it appears that both responses are accurate!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn my life I never dreamed that I would appear on such an important and central stage as Madison Square Garden!!!\u201d he added in the Instagram post. \u201cI feel endless gratitude \u2026 Wow I am excited to the max! God knows how much I can\u2019t wait to share this with you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The religious Zionist youth organization Bnei Akiva United States and Canada is co-sponsoring the performance along with the international production company Live Nation. The concert will include guest performances by Akiva and Amir Dadon and tickets are currently on sale through Ticketmaster.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Ribo is not the first Israeli to take to the stage at MSG. Rock musician Shlomo Artzi performed<\/a> at the theater in 2017 as part of an event celebrating Israel\u2019s 69th Independence Day and Gene Simmons, who was born in Israel, has held concerts there in the past with his American rock band Kiss.<\/span><\/p>\n

Born in Marseille, France, Ribo\u2019s family made aliyah<\/em> to Israel when he was eight years old and moved to the West Bank settlement of Kfar Adumim. His parents are of Algerian and Moroccan descent and Ribo grew up in a Haredi family, according to JTA. The publication added that the singer self-released his first album in 2014 and four of his five albums achieved gold certification, with each selling more than 15,000 copies in Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n

His track Sibat Hasibot<\/em> was the most-played song on Israel\u2019s radio stations in 2021, according to a recent New York Times<\/em> profile<\/a> about the singer.<\/span><\/p>\n
