‘I want Adam Levine to bring me the cake’: Israeli pop star Nunu on five years of war and music

Israeli pop star Nunu, Neomi Aharoni-Gal, recently celebrated five years in music with a sold-out show at the Barby, reflecting on her career's highs and challenges. Her breakthrough came in 2022, opening for Maroon 5 at Yarkon Park, an experience she described as "one of the most fun moments I've had, maybe the most fun day of my life." However, the October 7, 2023, conflict forced her to shelve a completed album, "Haganuz," due to the industry shutdown, a decision she called "one of the hardest and most painful moments."

• Nunu views her stage persona as an authentic extension of herself, rejecting the idea of dropping the moniker.
• Following the anniversary show's success, a second date has been added, and Nunu plans a broader tour across Israel, including festival appearances at InDnegev and Smilansky Festival.
• She is also entering a creative phase to develop new material.
• Looking ahead to her 10-year milestone, she humorously expressed a wish for Adam Levine to bring her a celebratory cake.
