As a child he dreamt of becoming a pilot, but, at the age of 11 he discovered music, and decided to become a musician.
He constantly listened to the charts, bought pop magazines and started playing guitar.
With money he had from his “Bar-Mitzvah” Izhar bought an electric guitar and an amplifier, and started his first band , The Red Dogs, in his native town Nof Yam. As a son of a Israeli civil servant Izhar spent most of his childhood in foreign countries, such as France, Cambodia and Greece, but the most meaningful period was in Holland where he lived from the age of 15 till the age of 18. There, Izhar, played in various bands and was constantly exposed to the concerts and records of the time.
It was there where his musical identity was forged. In 1977 Izhar was recruited to the Israeli army and was positioned in Galei Tzahal, the army radio station, serving as a musical programmer. Simultaneously he continued to write music and recorded his first version of Tslam’s “Lirot Ota Hayom” (See her Today) then titled “Nothing has Happened” (lyrics by Izhar and his mother) at Kolifon studios in Jaffa.
While listening to the song in Galei Tzahal he met a soldier-engineer, Yair Nitzani, who also happened to be a musician. They both hit it off immediately, as friends as well as musical partners.
Danny Bassan, a soldier-singer who came to Galei Tzahal to record with the Air force Musical Quartet, met Izhar and together started a disco company, working as DJs.
