Comedian Auditions for Israeli Band Dag Nachash's Seventh Member

After 30 years together, the Israeli band Dag Nachash is looking to refresh its lineup by adding a seventh member. As they prepare for celebratory performances in Caesarea and Barbi Tel Aviv, the band has announced auditions for the new position.

Comedian and stand-up artist Yonatan Barak participated in the auditions, revealing a long-held dream to perform with the band. Although Dag Nachash initially expressed reservations about the idea, Barak persisted, sharing that he had envisioned this since his army days. The article teases whether his audition will be successful and if he can truly sing with the group.

Barak's audition is featured as the second episode in a five-part micro-comedy series, a collaboration between Ynet and Dag Nachash, set to premiere on Ynet this week. The series is written by Omri Amit and Adar Marom, known for their work on "Made in Israel" and "Buba Shel Layla," and directed by Roey Florentin, who has directed "Trip After the Army," "HaNachla," and "Eretz Nehederet."

Each episode will feature a different guest attempting to convince the band they are the ideal candidate for the seventh spot, culminating in a song performance with Dag Nachash. Other notable guests auditioning include Guri Alfi, Joy Rieger, Roey Bar Natan, and Daniel Chen. A new episode will be released daily on the Ynet website at 8:30 PM. Additional content, including behind-the-scenes material, is available on the "New Member for Dag Nachash" platform.
