artist-marzipanmarzipanOn Friday November 20th local record label Sound Of Perpetual Astonishment (SOPA) presents an evening with four very different live acts at the Aarhus Art Academy in Vestergade 29 (right opposite Café Vestergade - and not to be confused with the art academy in Mejlgade). The line-up for the evening is:
Berlin-based Italian musician Marzipan Marzipan play utterly charming tunes about travelling, life in the city and love. Using an old Italian 60s guitar, a drum machine, a loop-pedal and a toy-keyboard she works her unique lo-fi magic. With three weeks on the Danish indie chart Det Elektriske Barometer and great reviews of her cd she has already made a little name for herself in Denmark despite only playing here a few times.
Sister Chain & Brother John is a duo also hailing from Berlin. With just vocals and distorted guitar or bass they play what they themselves have dubbed “parlour punk”. Plenty of attitude and hooks judging from their album “Darkness To Warm Your Heart”.
A.K. Hansn & The Five Orange Pips is a trip down in the underbelly of Aarhus. Tall tales and stranges character populate the universe of A.K. Hansn who you may already know from the band Singvogel - and years ago Vildensky. In his own name he moves more into ’spoken word’ territory, though still with music playing an important part.
Agata & Me is a Bosnian-Sicilian duo based in Aarhus who use guitars, keyboards and electronics. Harmonious voices mix with jittery beats and create beautiful melancholic songs. The duo has toured in Italy, Germany and Ireland. Tyskland og Irland. The duo’s Bosnian half, Emir Pasic, also plays in the Aarhusian balkanpunk band KURvE.
When the live acts are not playing the two DJs Zelda Panda (Berlin) and Capt. Daydream (Aarhus) will play records.
The doors open at 20.00 and the entrance is 50 DKK. For more info about SOPA and the shows visit www.sopa.dk.
