A Heartfelt Thank You for an Unforgettable Year!

Dear Friends and Supporters,

As 2025 draws to a close, we take a moment to send a deeply heartfelt big thank you to each and every one of you. Your incredible support and enthusiasm this past year have truly fueled Avishai, his music and journey.

Seeing so many of you fill the halls, venues and festivals across the globe in 2025 has been a continuous source of inspiration. Thank you for your listening and being part of the music and coming out in such great numbers. Your own presence at the concerts makes the connection and the whole experience complete for Avishai and his musical partners in the moment on stage.

Recording & Release: What we know…
|
Last but certainly not least, 2026 will see the recording and release of a brand-new trio album!
|
This highly anticipated recording, titled ARKA (releasing worldwide in May, is perhaps Avishai’s most personal work to date. While he has always used music to build bridges between worlds and people, with ARKA, Avishai is recognising the people in his own orbit.
|
Titled after his long-time best friend, the album is a rare, vulnerable deep dive: many of the tracks relate to a personal connection to family, close friends, collaborators, and meaningful relationships…. more soon.
