Mor Wed, Rising Israeli Music Star, Wins Breakthrough Artist Award
Singer Mor Wed, a 25-year-old from Ashkelon, is celebrating a highly successful year in her music career, culminating in winning the Breakthrough Artist of the Year award. Her journey began modestly, uploading singing videos online from her hometown while attending Ulpana Tzvia. Her initial songs and the single "Call Me Mommy" marked the start of her professional career.
Wed's music quickly gained traction, with hits like "Dizziness," "Dancing on My Sorrow," and "You Don't Buy Me" dominating radio playlists. This success propelled her from small club performances to sold-out shows at major venues, including a significant first performance at the Menora Mivtachim Arena in Tel Aviv. She also recently performed at the Live Park in Rishon LeZion.
In addition to the Breakthrough Artist award, Wed also received the EP of the Year award from Kan Gimmel. Despite her rapid rise to fame, Wed remains grounded, acknowledging those who supported her journey. Her meteoric ascent from online videos to a prominent figure in Israeli music is considered a refreshing phenomenon.
