Shalom Hanoch (Hebrew: שלום חנוך; born September 1, 1946) is an Israeli rock singer, lyricist and composer.

He is considered one of the founders of Israeli rock and modern Israeli music in more generally, both of which have been profoundly influenced by his work. His collaboration with Arik Einstein produced some of the first Israeli rock albums. He is often referred to as "The King of Israeli Rock".
