MEET JERYKO

Jeryko (Yaniv Hoffman) is a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter who blends soulful pop and folk rock with the spiritual depth of niggunim and raw, honest storytelling. Exploring themes of faith, resilience, and modern life, his music resonates as deeply in intimate rooms as it does on festival stages, garnering over 2.5 million streams and leading to sold-out shows across the U.S. and a growing international audience.

Rooted in his Orthodox Jewish identity and shaped by his journey as both an artist and community builder, Jeryko crafts songs that are deeply personal yet universally felt. His powerful message reflects his own story: a journey that led him from a Jewish upbringing and service as a commander in the IDF to a deep connection with Chassidus.

Jeryko’s music is designed to bring down the light of Hashem in a contemporary, relatable way. His stage name itself embodies his mission, referencing the biblical battle of Jericho, where the walls were broken down through belief in G-d and the power of sound.

Yaniv has been actively involved in building a movement of inspiring Jews in downtown New York. From hidden miracles to heartbreak to perseverance, Jeryko's music calls listeners to find light in the shadows and strength in the climb.
