Yael Naim Comes to the Boulder Theater This Fall

YAEL NAIM is coming to Boulder Theater on September 16th, 2016. Doors: 7:00 pm | Show: 8:00 pm. Tickets on sale 6.24 - $25 Reserved or $29.50 Gold Circle.

After the worldwide success of the feel-good album, released in 2007, YAEL NAIM unveils her second album today « She Was a Boy ».

Closeted in a Parisian apartment for two years, YAEL NAIM and DAVID DONATIEN perfected Yael's songs in Hebrew and English, which culminated in a commercial and artistic success (Victoire de la Musique 2008, for the Album of the Year World Music category). Following the use of the song « New Soul » in a promotional advert for Apple, it entered the Top Ten on the US sales chart.

Since then however, the Parisian flat has been turned into a studio; more space, but the same passion to make an album at their own pace. Having made great use of these past three years by playing anywhere where there was even a slight echo of their music, and to taste the pleasures of the fringe (a tribute to Joni Mitchel, on the Beatle's album "Let it Be", a collaboration with the National Jazz Orchestra and a representation at the Pleyel concert hall), YAEL NAIM has given her all to this process that she herself qualifies as a particularly intimate way to create songs.

YAEL offers us a mix of gentle as well as heartbreaking songs, crossed with those that don't resemble theirs like for example the light tempo of "Come Home", or of their dreams in "My Dreams" and their certainties, using the richness of Balkan chords as in "She Was A Boy", in which Yael encounters a young woman who is not like the others and not of their opinion. "I Try Hard" uses a mix of the artist's words and that of the woman.
