At the end of 2020, the album "Sherim Tefilila" was released, which is a composed and sung version of the successful children's book "Tefilila" . Eder composed and performed the song "All the Children in the World" on the album, and also sang with Ester Rada on the song "Mangina Mochas" composed by Yoni Rechter, and participated in the performance of the theme song "Zaman Tefilila" composed by Guy Maroz.

In 2021, Eder collaborated with Jane Bordeaux again for a new single, Mashehu Tipshi (Cover of “Somethin' Stupid” by Frank & Nancy Sinatra).[2]

In June 2021, "Bakol Gadol", the first single from the new album by Alon and the band, was released. In October 2021, the second single, "The Golden Road", was released, with the participation of a choir and all the band members. In December 2021, another single was released with the participation of Chava Alberstein called "You have no right to pardon in the world", written by Leah Goldberg.
