Jerusalem Rocks

Jerusalem Rocks !!!

Jerusalem Rocks, For the first time in history, an extraordinary lineup of musical artists will unite together on one stage in Jerusalem, Israel. The biggest international music event EVER in Jerusalem!
The Festival - A musical event for peace to take place on September 9, 2007 in Jerusalem.

Jerusalem Rocks! will bring together musicians from all over the world in support of peace and unity. Jerusalem has hundreds of thousands of students and youth, numerous universities and a total population of 725,000. The city, its population and industry strive to show the world that Jerusalem is dedicated to peace and, more, is a growing center of today’s culture and business. However, Jerusalem has not hosted a mega international musical event in many years. Jerusalem Rocks! speaks to all these issues. It is not only a gift to Jerusalem; it is a statement to the world.

According to Jacob Ner-David, Co-Founder and Executive Producer of Jerusalem Rocks, "While there have been festivals for peace and unity in the past, there has never been an event like Jerusalem Rocks! that brings this caliber of artists together in the Holy City. Our goal is for Jerusalem Rocks! to draw concertgoers from all parts of Israel, as we plan to demonstrate the city's ability to host major performances annually."

Carmi Wurtman, Jerusalem Rocks! Event Producer and Co-Founder, notes, "This festival marks the beginning of an unprecedented movement that we hope will not only re-establish Jerusalem as a cultural center, but will also trigger behavioral changes, inspiring others to 'answer the call' to embrace cultural differences."
On September 9, 2007, the Black Eyed Peas are set to return to Israel to headline Jerusalem Rocks The Black Eyed Peas vocalist, Fergie, is scheduled to perform hits off her solo debut album, The Dutchess, which boasts four consecutive top five singles and has sold millions of copies worldwide.
