On her new album ,Yael is telling her private story of dealing with a complex post-traumatic stress disorder, the music portraying her
journey from pain and wounds toward hope during the healing process. During the songwriting process Yael was mentored by legendary bass player Greg Cohen who contributed his experience of many years playing with Tom Waits, Ornette Coleman, Lou Reed and more.

Harvin (Jeff Beck, Air, Seal), Justin Stanton (Snarky Puppy), Mor Biron (Berlin Philharmonic), Haggai Cohen Milo (Omer Klein
Trio), and Thomas Moked Blum (Fink, Patricia Kaas).
The Album was recorded over the course of four days at the legendary Emil Berliner Studios, Yael and her band played live in the same room which allowed them to musically communicate in the most intimate and free way. The result is a fascinating musical experience, adorably honest, heartfelt and direct.

where she studied with legends such as Sheila Jordan, Reggie Workman and Jane Ira Bloom.
