Welcoming Shabbat with Shalom Aleichem Sung by The Shalva Band

The song Shalom Aleichem is traditionally sung in many Jewish households, and asks the angels to protect us and bless us with peace. The Shalva Band has brought together Israeli communities in the diaspora, alongside evacuees from the south and the north, as well as families of abductees to join in prayer, singing together for peace in Israel.

Since 2005, the Shalva Band has been inspiring crowds worldwide. Having perfomed at Eurovision and for the President of the United States, the band uses music as a language to unite people.

From all corners of the globe, we celebrate the unbridled unity of Israelis and Jews around the world, and pray that we can welcome home the hostages for a Shabbat soon.

Enjoy the Shalva Band's version of Shalom Aleichem, and Shabbat shalom!
