He want from Avraham Friedman to Avraham Fried to Avremel.
Same way as MBD became “Modche”
His family has called him Avremel for decades
i think MBD was the one who made that name famous by calling him that on stage.
These days its hip to be a one name star. It was only a matter of time.
i dont know exactly forsure but i think nachum segal gave him that name and thats how it became popular through the radio and everybody catched on to it
I think the real answer is that it is because of some changes in the jewish music scene as a whole. It used to be more “commercial”, everything was more official. You wouldn’t hear him singing a song from a different singer in his league… Now you can find clips of him singing virtually any current hit like Vzakeini (B. Levine), etc.. Everything is more heimish in a way. This is also, in my opinion why he is know now to more people as Avreimel.
he is known to people with this name because thats the name he got years ago it has nothing to do with how and what he sings……
Avraham Fried feels the need to have a one name name. Like Lipa, Dedi, Shwekey, etc.
His name was always Avremel Friedman. He changed it to Avraham Fried as a performer name. The people that really know him call him by his real name which is Avremel.
his father, a’h, was a tzaddik… one of the sweetest people I ever met, always with a smile, a gentle soul. I used to work with him.
His latest concert ad has it printed as “Avrohom”
slightly off topic.. cant find the old thread.
does anyone know the lyrics to the ki hirbeisa song.. its one of the newest songs on the market… Fried and gertner sang it last night by the HAazinu concert..

my family has known him for quite some time as other posters mentioned his family has called him that for years, if anything he feels comfortable using it it is not a reason like needing to shorten his name or feeling hip.
