We haven’t heard material from Yael since 2008. Welcome back YN!
Whilst Yael’s initial success might outwardly have appeared overnight, the international ubiquity of ‘New Soul’ was the culmination of a lifetime informed by the push/pull of a life spent living across two continents. Born to Jewish-Tunisian immigrant parents in France, Yael spent her infant years in Paris, before the Naim family permanently relocated to Tel Aviv.
Yael will release her latest album ‘Older’ on November 6 in the UK, following the Apple ad sync for preview track ‘Walk Walk’, a campaign in which Yael features alongside the likes of Leon Bridges, Jamie xx and SOHN. Yael will play a London show in support (part of the Les InRocks Festival) at St Giles in The Fields on November 12.
