Tzvika Force wrote his five-song debut album "Petite Natúre" -- a French nickname for a spoiled prince, sensitive and fragile -- following a long period of crisis surrounding the dissolution of his first band. At the time, Tzvika was in the midst of a search for an independent way of creating new sounds and production for his piano sketches. The search also led him to thoughts of giving up the dream, but just before he did , he found exactly what he was looking for in a meeting with renowned producer Ben Spector.
While sketches first started only on the piano, Spector added his electronic touch and feel, which deploys between the old and the new - the piano, the world's oldest instruments, and modern electronic music. Fusion between Tzvika's indie rock and the latest electronic production of Ben Spector created innovative and exciting sounds that combine the two worlds of music content with Tzvika's deep voice and theatrical tone.
Tzvika Force - Biography
"Tzvika Force excels in singing from the wrath of his throat, so exposed and vulnerable, which leaves us with nothing but a strong urge to let his paralyzing magic completely capture us. In his songs, Tzvika Force fully succeeds in reaching and touching our barest nerves using bittersweet melodies, and with the help of melancholic, dark tunes, most of them intimate and heart piercing, he provides an unforgettable experience to anyone who is willing to listen" (-Tali Hermetz 106fm).

Force's music requires a lot from the listener. It is not featherweight hymns or "feel-good" hits, but the real thing, the heart of a true musical work, the kind that reveals a bleeding heart and mountains of emotion.
Two singles "For breaking my heart" and "Accident" and their accompanying music videos have created buzz about the artist, both in Israel and abroad.
Reviews-
"Tzvika Force translated his feelings as an outsider into dramatic songs, and found consolation in music. Force's compositions refer to various characters and seemingly banal situations; the songs make these pedestrian characters and circumstances sound grandiose and dramatic." (Lea Penn, Haaretz)
"His voice commands attention -- singing in soulful lament Force wrote his songs in English using guitar and piano to create his debut EP, Petite Nature". (Earbuddy)
"Tzvika Force is a clear and precise kind of artist, almost like a ballet dancer - Point must be perfect, the back straight. But underneath all this striving for excellence hide his shadows and dark rooms." (Alma Elliot, 15% Deaf blog)
"Tzvika Force is the hero of emotion and the bleeding heart, a picturesque figure of comics for adults, a purified cloud of happiness and an endless pain at the same time." (Leon Feldman, 106fm)
"Whilst definitively rock based, the tracks contain a classical feel to them which generates a sound that is appealing on many levels and it is due to this combination that whilst songs run to some considerable length, they contain plenty in them to have the listener wanting extended versions." (Indie bands blog)
"There's some real emotion within the vocals and the instrumentation is seriously fantastic." (The record stache)
"Tzvika Force, an Israelite singer-songwriter/musician who makes an impressive mix of powerful, soulful vocals, and unique and articulate instrumentation." (We fucking love music)
