When I Arrived You Were Already There
Jaffa Road's Juno-nominated singer takes flight with the release of her debut! Shaped by years of sharing songs of peace and prayer with worldwide audiences, Aviva Chernick's growing body of work reveals a tireless force of nature. Pure, somewhat devotional, raw and entirely unguarded, she exudes the confidence of a seasoned veteran.

Sung in both English and Hebrew, Chernick enlists the support of Ernie Tollar, Joel Schwartz, Chris Gartner, Rakesh Tewari, Aaron Lightstone, Naghmeh Farahmand and others, incorporating exotic instrumentation such as tabla, udu, xaphoon, oud, djembe and bansuri together with electric guitar,piano, bass and percussion.
