Yael Naïm

Yael Naïm will be performing at the Théâtre Lino Ventura in Nice on 26 September 2026. A Franco-Israeli singer-songwriter who came to prominence in 2007 with "New Soul," she has, album by album, built a repertoire in which pop and folk engage naturally without excess. Trained on the guitar from an early age and having passed through her first bands in Israel and later in Paris, she has shaped sensitive songwriting and precise arrangements, often in partnership with percussionist and producer David Donatien. On stage, her songs unfold with a clear voice, carefully crafted harmonies and a discreet groove, between piano, percussion and electronic touches. The set moves between signature hits and more recent pieces, sung in English, Hebrew or French, in a format that favors closeness and attentive listening. An evening to rediscover the living substance of her compositions—between hushed ballads and light rhythms—and to appreciate what defines Yael Naïm’s signature: melodies that hold up and a sense of detail that elevates each song.
