Los Angeles (and beyond) – On August 25, 2025, Bravo.am sat down with singer and creative spirit Anushik Alaverdyan to dive into how summer—and life’s busyness—shape her world. Here’s the essence of her laughter-punctuated, sunshine-bathed reflections .
Anushik kicks off with a confession: she used to love summer, especially the chance to stay poolside all day. But this year? She’s barely had one moment to dive in. And without that water escape, “the heat becomes unbearable,” she laughs—and admits she’s kind of over summer altogether .
Still, the season brings its own magic—open‑air gatherings with friends, and visits from family returning home just to soak in that summer energy . That vibe fuels her creativity… even when the workload piles up in exactly the season she’d rather be relaxing. The result? For years now, she and her husband haven’t managed to carve out even seven consecutive free days to go on vacation—and this summer wasn’t an exception .
Anushik opens up with a nostalgic smile, recollecting her only summer fling—from when she was 13 and spent every childhood camp day thinking about that special someone—and then “never stayed in touch” afterward .
Fast forward to adulthood, and she jokes that if she and her husband landed on a deserted island, she’d bring… their kids . But her real adventurous side dreams of a trip to Africa or some other unexplored getaway “somewhere absolutely different” .
Nothing fancy, just an evening under the sky—wine in hand, gentle music, maybe a cozy café. That’s her recipe for a perfect summer date .
She fondly remembers childhood summers lost to street games that carried on “from morning until night” . This summer, though, she crossed off an artistic milestone—releasing her very first album .
In the kitchen, she’s all about simple, seasonal comfort—like eggs fried with fresh greens, or cooking fish in the oven while digging through cool Internet recipes .
Her go-to cooldown? A trusty air conditioner (cue laughter) .
Movies or TV? Not much lately—she swings back to favorite comedies or melodramas. As for books, she highly recommends Charles Aznavour’s autobiography, calling it an emotional deep dive through his creative life journey .
In Armenia, the summer gem is Lori—“such beautiful backdrops and nature to relish,” she says . To manage the heat, she eats light, plans to get back into working out once fall hits, and finds tangible inspiration in the vibrant streets, social evenings, and impromptu run-ins you only get during summer .
Her dream summer? One that’s not sweltering. She admits that balancing concert tours and actual relaxation is tricky—sometimes there’s just no free days to rest .
She avoids planning her vacation—trusts the moment to decide. But during summer, she insists on feeling the scent of green trees, brushing her fingers over wildflowers before they vanish, setting her eyes on beautiful landscapes, and spending time in Lori .
And regardless of everything? She can’t wait to hug her kids, wants people to listen to her new album, and isn’t afraid to say it: the real secret to summer’s magic lies in expressing your feelings without holding back .
