Gideon Unna x Naomi Shapira – “Heaven is here”

“Heaven is Here” by Gideon Unna feat Naomi Shapira feels like finding a quiet patch of sunlight on a noisy day. Gideon Unna wrote this original single from his kibbutz using just his guitar, and that organic, human core stays right at the center of the track. It channels a peaceful, optimistic spirit inspired by 1960s vocal harmony groups like The Mamas & the Papas, The Carpenters, and Scott McKenzie’s “San Francisco”. Instead of asking us to imagine a world without heaven like John Lennon’s “Imagine”, this track gently points out that peace, beauty, and paradise are already right around us if we slow down to notice them.

The collaboration here works beautifully and it’s what makes the track more interesting. Lior Medan built an arrangement using AI tools during production, and Naomi Shapira’s vocal performance adds incredible warmth. Recorded at Yoav Asif’s intimate home studio in Moshav Tzrufa, the song carries an unhurried, cozy feeling that stays with you long after the music stops.

Even the cover artwork captures that bright 1960s charm perfectly and the vibrant illustration features a central peace sign, a white dove, blooming flowers, a butterfly, and a glowing sun framed by hand-drawn lettering. It gives you a sense of openness and joy before you press play. Honestly, I love this track, and I think the artist created a genuine masterpiece that brings real comfort to the listener.

Gideon Unna is an exceptionally thoughtful singer-songwriter and music student at the University of Haifa whose work focuses on gratitude, kindness, and human connection. I strongly recommend that you check out his previous releases, including “Modest Love” and “What Is Love“.
