Israel isinger . Gosh was born and raised inHerzliya ,Israel where as a middle child with a younger and an older brother she became influenced by the jazz music ofBillie Holiday ,Edith Piaf ,Louis Armstrong andCharlie Parker .Gosh's music career began when some friends asked her if she could make a demo recording a song, with
Yoni Bloch whom had written it for Nurit Galron (famous Israeli singer). She agreed and after a week she was asked to become a background singer in Bloch’s shows.That show turned out to be an important one, as Bloch and Gosh looked to the audience and saw one of the managers of the major Israeli music label NMC at the time, Khaim Shemesh, where Yoni Bloch was signed at that time.Shemesh, with a history of discovering and nourishing talented stars like
Aviv Geffen , Eifo HaYeled, HaKhaverim Shel Natasha, HaYehudim, Eviyatar Banai and many more artists, was so impressed by the background vocalist Gosh that he went to her backstage and asked her to sign a contract.After a long period of having a strictly professional relationship, Gosh and Shamesh are now in a more intimate relationship and despite a 25 year age gap are living together in
Even Yehuda ,Tel Aviv . Shemesh had left his third wife and 2 children for Gosh.External links
