FOLK U MONDAY

08.07.2024 / 19:00 – 22:00
With Khavn, Rama Thiaw

Folk U Monday started as Folk U in Manila circa 2010 to promote original new music by Philippine songwriters. It evolved into a space for new music and poetry.

Folk U Monday is a semi-regular Monday night happening at that white hole in the wall next to Max & Moritz. It features all kinds of art and performance imaginable and unimaginable to man. From singer-songwriters to free jazz to silenced cinema, it celebrates both the living and the dead.

For the first Folk U Monday at daadgalerie, Brezel Göring of Stereo Total will sing his new compositions; while Rama Thiaw & Khavn will perform the poetry of the late great Tomaž Šalamun (DAAD Fellow 2003) with free jazz music by Babel Gun. A new installation by Khavn —Saint Kafka’s 12 Missing Hearts— will also be presented.

Folk U Monday is the big bang of every week to give birth to new folk extravaganza. Folkers of the World, Unite!
