About Nachas

Nachas is a singer on Lehallel — the filtered YouTube platform. 70+ of his recordings can be watched here, with no ads and no comments.

Nachas is a Jewish singer of upbeat songs of simcha and emunah, in English and in Hebrew - "the smooth voiced singer", in the words of his own description, who spent four years releasing one single after another before his debut album came out in 2015. His second album, Emes, followed in 2017. His most-watched songs here are Feel The Music, AH-YAY!, Dance Floor, Matana, Champion, Badaboom, Am Yisrael Chai, Tzur Yisrael and Hands Up!, most of them with their own music or lyric video.

Many of the songs are his own: he composed Bischar Zeh - track five of the debut album, with music by Ruli Ezrachi and the child soloist Moishe Kahn - and Miracle, Nodeh Lecha, Ani Ma'amin and Sing With Me!. Matana and Ma'yan Olam Haba were composed by Mordechai Brezel with words by Miriam Israeli; Matana's music was produced by Sruli Broncher, who also made the remix of Feel The Music, and it has a music video made with Snapchat. Champion, with words co-written by Abe Cohen, was produced by Shloimy Salzman and recorded at Edgware Studios, and Hashem Is With Me, which he sings with Shabse and Yehuda Fuchs, was composed by Shabse Fuchs, with a bridge, "We are the children of creation", composed by Eli Begun. AOK and Trumpets are DJ Yossi Newman's songs, sung with him.

His own descriptions name who makes the music with him: songs produced by Yoel Weiss (with Gershy Schwarcz on AH-YAY!), mixed and mastered by Yitzy Berry, recorded at The Side Yard Studios in Lakewood. Memories is his cover of Abie Rotenberg's song from Journeys II, a song he says he always dreamed of singing; Ma'min Benisim is Yaakov Shwekey's, from We Are a Miracle; Vezakeini, composed by Yossi Green and first sung by Avraham Fried, comes from his live sessions with Ruli; and he sings Et Rikod unplugged with Mendy Fisch Music.

More from his own descriptions: the debut album is called Bischar Zeh, and it came after four years of singles, many live concerts and five music videos. Am Yisrael Chai was produced in Israel by Shay Barak, with Tal Barak on guitars and a mix by Oren Lutz. Nodeh Lecha has words by Vori Schachter and a choir by David Taub, and Ba'eilim Hashem he composed himself. Miracle came out just in time for Chanukah, produced by Gershy Schwarcz at Edgware Studios with music by the Booming Brothers. Tzur Yisrael, his description explains, is the name we call upon for Hashem's unfailing support of our people: unchanging and dependable, immovable and impenetrable. At the Israel Day Concert on Central Park's SummerStage he sang Acheinu, Badaboom and Ah Simcha with the Shloime Dachs Orchestra, on a stage shared with Lipa Schmeltzer, Benny Friedman and Gad Elbaz, and Champion he sang live at Camp HASC's virtual Sukkos concert of 2020.

In Hebrew he sings Ah Simcha, Badaboom, Am Segula, Ba'eilim Hashem, Ani Ma'amin, Tzur Yisrael, Am Yisrael Chai, Ma'yan Olam Haba and Bischar Zeh, and in English Oh My Gosh, Close To You, Miracle and Sing With Me!.

On stage he sang Ah Simcha with the Zemiris Choir at Brooklyn College on Pesach 2014, Gad Elbaz's Hashem Melech at a Pesach program, Am Echad, Ah Simcha and Tzur Yisrael at the Miami Boys Choir concert in Los Angeles, Benny Friedman's Ivri Anochi on Chol Hamoed Sukkos 2017, Champion and Hashem Is With Me at Camp HASC, and Ah Yay and AOK at the Oorah Family Chanuka concert. He also sang at the Israel Day Concert of 2014, live in Miami, at a Pirchei siyum on Mishnayos, and at a chuppah - Tefilat Kallah and Mi Adir.
