CO Manager

Longtime submariner, musician and sound designer born and raised in Beit Hakerem, Jerusalem. As a child Yaron learned to play the cello and the piano, and at age 15 began saxophone lessons with (Yellow Submarine founder!) Shmulik Kovalski.

As a musician, Yaron has played, performed and recorded with many Israeli musicians, all while working at the Yellow Submarine as a sound technician. In 1999 Yaron became technical manager for the submarine, a position he held for 16 years. During this period he accumulated a vast amount of experience in live shows and sound, recording and album mixing.

Additionally, Yaron has managed and taught the Yellow Submarine's school of sound design for the past 20 years, and also instructs students in the high school program.

These days Yaron is general manager of the Submarine, which has become his second home (or perhaps his first...) Together they have been diving and surfacing since 1991, just after the submarine was founded, and have been partners on many great aquatic and musical adventures.

Artistic Director

David's life in a nutshell:

After a rough childhood among 5 brothers, a blossoming youth in a boarding school, a military service chock full of chocolate and candy, a journey around the world and a hollywood-style romance, B.A. studies in Media and Communication at Sapir college, and three years in shellshocked Sderot, David finally landed in Jerusalem- looking for a place to fulfill his passion for music and radio. One year later he found himself in the belly of the Yellow Submarine. David makes a mean lemon pickle, legend has it he also pickles little aubergines (but not the purple ones!).

Has a great love for music in all it’s shapes and forms, and does his best to include excitement and emotion in every one of his days.

Sound technician

Sound = Eli. It really is as simple as that.

EQs, XLR, Mixers, compressors - you name it. In anything that has to do with performances, recording sessions, mixing, carpentry, renovations, deep philosophical conversations and a relentless search for the new and exciting - you can count on Eli. He lives it.

Eli grew up in Kiryat Bialik, fell in love with a Jerusalemite, got married, had 2 kids and is also known as Abu Tidhar. He is a sound engineer who graduated The Kinneret College on the Sea of Galilee and has a B.A. in Education. He often works as a freelance technician with both Israeli and foreign artists.
