Akiva Schechter just turned 23, but he has already spent over 20 years singing in front of audiences all over. Born and raised in Miami, Florida, Akiva found his love for singing from a very early age, even before he could speak. At 10 years old he entered A Jewish Star singing competition and was a finalist. At 11 years old he sang G-d Bless America at Florida Marlins Stadium as well the National Anthem at sold out crowds at both the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic basketball games in 2015.

Now, as an adult, Akiva is currently learning in Israel, and working with Yochi Briskman on new music, resulting in this brand new song and music video. The song is called “V’omar Bayom Hahu” and it comes with a full production music video filmed in Israel.

“This song speaks to my heart in so many ways. The melody fits so well with the meaning of the words. I truly believe this is a brilliant composition and that this past year has been so difficult for all families; between Covid, the tragedy in Meron, the bleachers falling, and the Champlain towers disaster there is no person that hasn’t been moved in some way.

Mashiach is so close, and with the moment being so near we all need to come together and reach out as a Jewish nation to bring him as quickly as possible. I am hopeful that this song will help bring Mashiach faster. The time of the songs release fits very well with the time of nechama and then Elul. The message is all about the coming of the Moshiach. I feel as an artist that it is important that we have the intention to sing and connect to a song on a greater level. I hope you believe, connect and love this song as much as I do!
