Lior is an Israeli born, Australian singer songwriter based in Sydney, who released his debut album, Autumn Flow, in early 2005. The album was certified gold by ARIA and was nominated for the J Award, presented by youth radio station Triple J, for the Australian Album of the Year. The first single, "This Old Love", reached number 42 in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2004, although it failed to chart in the UK on release. Lior was also nominated for three ARIA awards - Best Breakthrough Artist, Best Male Artist, and Best Independent Release (for Autumn Flow). He toured with the WOMAD festival in 2005 to the UK, Singapore and Korea. Lior also performed at the Spiegeltent in Melbourne in late October 2006, as well as the Make Poverty History concert in November.

In February 2006, Lior's second album, Doorways Of My Mind - Live at the NSC, was released. This live recording includes versions of many of the tracks from Autumn Flow as well as some originals.
