About me
Nice to meet
My name is Yanit Asulin
I am a singer, producer, and artistic director—and for over 20 years, this has been the world I live and breathe.
Born and raised in Israel, nurtured by the warmth, joy, and musical heritage of my Moroccan roots, my life has always been shaped by an eclectic blend of sounds—from traditional Moroccan music and French chansons to the rich legacy of Jewish liturgical melodies and Israeli music.
For me, great music and great production always go hand in hand; I love being on stage just as much as I love making sure every production detail is perfect. It is this combination of performing at the forefront while planning everything behind the scenes that is the secret to the success of my events.
On stage, I am a global folklore singer performing in over ten languages—including Greek, Ladino, Arabic, Moroccan, French, Italian, and Yiddish—with a particular expertise in the rich folklore of Mediterranean nations. As an Israeli artist who performs all over the world, I see this music as inseparable from the Israeli experience; it is the ultimate soundtrack to our 'Ingathering of the Exiles.'
I am proud to be known as 'Israel’s Folklore Singer' because I believe that folklore is a bridge—an authentic joy that connects people through our shared roots, even if they have only just met in the audience.
My obsession with folklore goes beyond the stage; I am a dedicated cultural researcher with three academic degrees. This gives me a deeper understanding of the soul behind every note, connecting your audience to the stories behind the music. But don’t let the academic side fool you—it won't stop me from dancing on the tables with you at your event!

With years of experience performing on global stages and collaborating with top production houses in Israel and abroad, I bring world-class standards to every event. My focus is on meticulous planning, seamless execution, and creating that unforgettable 'wow' factor that lingers long after the final note.
If you are seeking a unique Israeli-Mediterranean musical journey—one that is authentic, joyful, and soulful—I am here to bring your vision to life.
My Repertoire Includes: Israeli Folklore & Traditional Jewish Music | Ladino & Spanish Celebrations | Moroccan & Arabic Classics | Traditional Greek & Mediterranean Folklore, along with diverse sounds and languages from various other cultures.
Let’s connect and create your spectacular evening!

The House of Folklore: An International Performance Series
As an international artist and a researcher of world traditions, I see folklore as a living, shared language that touches us all. My passion for these cross-cultural ties naturally led me to bring our shared stories to life on stage. I believe that authentic music doesn't belong to the past; it must continue to resonate in the here and now. From this vision, a series of six folklore performances was born, where I host world traditions within my own artistic language. This encounter is fueled by the deep roots I grew up on and the diverse cultural influences that enveloped my home, making music an inseparable part of who I am.
This series represents the heart of my creative journey, featuring songs performed in over ten languages. It is a bridge between the ancient and the contemporary, where I breathe new life into classic masterpieces. Inspired by my EP, 'Folklore Addicted', each performance is a dedicated 'zoom-in' into a specific tradition.
The series explores six distinct musical landscapes:
-
Israeli Folklore & Heritage: A tribute to the Israeli soundtrack, featuring the songs that shaped the nation’s cultural identity.
-
Jewish Folklore & Piyyut: A deep dive into the world of sacred Jewish poetry and traditional melodies, brought to life with a fresh, modern perspective.
-
Ladino & Spanish Soul: A nostalgic journey through the hauntingly beautiful sounds of the Sephardic golden age.
-
Mediterranean & Arabic Spirit: A vibrant, rhythmic celebration of Middle Eastern roots and soulful traditions.
-
The Greek Odyssey: An electrifying performance featuring the authentic sounds of the bouzouki and the spirit of the Mediterranean.
-
Afro-American Folklore & Jazz: A sophisticated exploration of the roots of blues, soul, and vocal jazz traditions.
Whether on a grand festival stage or in an intimate cultural setting, these performances are an invitation to step into 'The House of Folklore'—a place where music transcends borders and resonates directly within the soul.

Beyond these core performances, I offer a versatile range of traditional musical journeys, tailored to the unique spirit of your event and the character of your audience. Depending on the desired atmosphere, our journey can expand into the nostalgic echoes of Ladino and Spanish sets, an electrifying Greek celebration featuring the authentic sounds of the bouzouki, or sophisticated performances dedicated to the soulful roots of Afro-American folklore and Jazz.
Each production is personally curated and led by me, transforming your vision into a happy, vivid, and unforgettable experience—whether it’s a large-scale production or a deeply personal milestone, like a wedding, that deserves a soundtrack as unique as your own story.
So, what makes your heart skip a beat?
Step inside and experience the magic!
As an international artist and performer with over 20 years on stage, I believe that soulful, root-based music is the shortest path to the heart.
I deeply understand both the logistical side of an event and the artistic soul that needs to shine through it. This means I know how to listen to what you're looking for, translate it into a precise experience, and build a show tailored just for you—from the vibe and energy to the smallest details. I piece together the artistic, human, and technical puzzle so that everything clicks perfectly.
With a premier network of top-tier musicians—each hand-picked and personally vetted—you receive a world-class team that ensures a seamless effortless flow. No compromises, no surprises.
My repertoire celebrates our deep heritage—from contemporary Israeli classics and Chassidic melodies to the vibrant energy of Mediterranean and Arabic music. Whether you are looking for a Jewish band for your event, an Israeli singer for events, or a leading Jewish music performer, I ensure that every soul in the room feels the depth of the tradition and the power of the music.

My Music
NEW RELEASES
I constantly continue to explore music, and in the past year, I have dived into fascinating collaborations that combine electronic sounds with warm, oriental vibes.
Currently, in June 2025, the song "Mawal " was released - my joint project with Neevos, which brings something completely different and exciting. And just before that, in May 2025, we surprised with an energetic rock version of the hit that broke the Israeli playlist - "Always Love Me" (Tamid ohev oti).

Folklore Addicted - EP Album
So, what exactly is 'Folklore Addicted – EP'? To me, it is far more than just a mini-album; it is a passion project born from two years of deep creative work. Conceived during the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when the world felt distant and disconnected, I felt a calling to create something that offered the exact opposite: closeness, resonance, and a return to life's essentials through my love for folklore and the stories that music tells.
Released in 2023, the EP features six songs in five different languages—Greek, Egyptian Arabic, Spanish, Italian, and Hebrew. Each track marks a milestone in my personal and musical journey. To bring these stories to life, each song is accompanied by a cinematic music video filmed on location in its country of origin. Filmed during the height of the pandemic, many of these sites were closed to the public at the time, capturing rare and breathtaking visuals that are truly one-of-a-kind.
In producing this album, I collaborated with world-renowned Israeli producers, including Kobi Israelite (London) and Gene Reznick (Toronto). If you are someone who craves 'soulful' sounds—the kind that feel like home and simply make your heart beat faster—this is a journey you must experience."
