Donjana<\/h2>\n

Klezmer band<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since 2018, the three amateur musicians have formed “Donjana” together and play klezmer music that gets the soul and legs swinging. They got to know each other through the Erfurt Klezmer Orchestra, an amateur\/semi-professional orchestra with more than 7o members, which performs annually in non-corona times. <\/p>\n

Donjana’s joy of playing, their ability to “lose themselves” and always “find themselves again” and their enthusiasm for melancholy, cheerful music is infectious. They make music “at eye level” and enjoy accompanying people when they want to come together.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"Slip\"<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Slip<\/h2>\n

Who needs sleep when you can make music? The Hamburg band Slip shows that even with a schedule that looks like a Tetris game about to go over, you can still find time for creative chaos. Between full-time jobs, art projects and the daily obstacle course of single-parent care work, these musical multitasking masters have created a safe space. <\/p>\n

The sound of Hamburg band Slip is characterized by flanger, fuzz and chorus effects, and the vocals also suggest an effect, or do they? When asked about a genre, they talk about aggressive love-fi music<\/em>. Others would describe it as lo-fi sounds with post-punk influences, personalized by their love of grunge and their love of experimentation. <\/p>\n

The lyrics tell stories of depressive states and disorientation, feminist struggles, the eternal search for love and ecstatic moments of sky-high joy. This emotional range is reflected in their sound, which oscillates between melancholy lows and euphoric highs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Linde Yu Bau\u00df from YU ‘n`ZU<\/h2>\n

Oriental jazz pop<\/strong>
\nhttp:\/\/www.yu-n-zu.de\/<\/p>\n

YU ‘n’ ZU have been thrilling audiences for over 20 years on various stages in and around Hamburg.<\/p>\n

Both musicians spent several years of their childhood abroad – in Turkey and Japan. Their music expresses a longing for a distant culture – foreign and yet familiar. Home is the theme of the new, multilingual program, as well as hope, loneliness and humour.
\nThe audience can expect intelligent, creative, experimental music that arouses emotions, with a beat and precise rhythm; music that effortlessly creates connections between pop, jazz, oriental rhythms and melodies. <\/p>\n

From Swedish to Turkish – those who like surprises will enjoy it.<\/p>\n

Linde Yu Bau\u00df \/\/ Singer, vocal teacher and band coach is also a lecturer for the girls’ bands* at f*mz and has coached many bands.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"A-Quadrat<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

A-Quadrat<\/h2>\n

RhythMusiKabarett
\n<\/strong> https:\/\/www.a-quadrat.org\/<\/em><\/p>\n

The name brings back memories of math lessons. Better take a quick look at the stage then, because A Quadrat is pure entertainment. <\/p>\n

You can also learn something: for example, what RhythMusiKabarett means. The duo with strong voices and rhythms cruises through the absurdities of life. Packed, underlaid or sometimes overlaid with beautiful sounds, powerful rhythms and quirky harmonies. Analog and in real time. <\/p>\n

You can hear and see them: Drums, vocals, tin cans, keyboard, body percussion, melodica, ukulele, stove tops and whatever else the two of them can get their hands on.<\/p>\n

A Quadrat knows the stage like the back of their hand, as they were both on the road with “Trude tr\u00e4umt von Afrika” for over 20 years. Now as a solo. As a duo. In a square. Annette Kayser studied drums – Keo Hundius is also a percussionist (sounds funny, but is also loud). <\/p>\n

Sir Bradley<\/h2>\n

Jazz at its finest<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/www.sirbradley.de\/<\/p>\n

Rough blues, crude constructions, intimate lyricism, fragility, radiant latte groove.<\/p>\n

The quartet’s sound is oriented towards contemporary jazz, the themes are inspired by new music, jazz or pop.
\nThe compositions are often intellectual constructions that, when brought to sound, always find a strong emotional expression.<\/p>\n

Sticks & St\u00f6ckl<\/h2>\n

Women* samba band<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/sticksundstoeckl.de\/<\/p>\n

The musicians of “Sticks & St\u00f6ckl” shine with their passion for danceable rhythms, quirky choreographies and eye-catching costumes.<\/p>\n

All kinds of large and small drums from across the Atlantic* are used, as well as misunderstood instruments such as triangles, bells and shakers – and harmony makes its entrance with accordion, mandolin and co.<\/p>\n

* such as surdos, repiniques, timbals, caixas, cuica, tamborims, congas …<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Bertha Blau<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/bertha-blau.de<\/p>\n

17 women with saxophones, clarinets, drums, percussion and electric bass – that’s the BigBandBerthaBlau. They play music ranging from swing and Latin to klezmer, well-known movie tunes and folk. They play for your ears, heart and dancing feet! <\/p>\n

Delicate melancholic sounds are followed by groovy beats in the next piece – so it’s not just seasoned jazz fans who get their money’s worth at their concerts. Their unmistakable signature: an unusual line-up “completely without brass” with their own exciting arrangements and always surprising instrumentation! <\/p>\n

The BigBandBerthaBlau was formed in 2003 at the Altona Women’s Music Center.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Ukulelistas<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Die Ukulelistas<\/h2>\n

The Ukulelistas formed in 2022 at the Frauen*musikzentrum as the first regular ukulele group. Today, there is a permanent core of 10-14 women who play in this ukulele big band under the direction of Angela Gobelin. The repertoire includes songs sung or written by women from several decades. The wild 60s meet feminist songs from the 70s and danceable songs from the 80s alternate with soulful country songs. Everything is arranged in a varied way and brought to the stage with a lot of enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Missratene T\u00f6chter<\/h2>\n

MEDIAKITMUSIKINSTA: @MISSRATENETOECHTER<\/p>\n

EMAIL: MISSRATENETOECHTER@POSTEO.DE<\/p>\n

PFAFFINGERmissratene T\u00f6chter combine punky songwriting with detailed synth sounds and polyphonic pop vocals with elements of scream, with lyrics that sail from the heart to the brain, between trash, depth and irony. Born in 2019 in Hamburg’s subcultural scene as an anarchic chanson duo in an acoustic style, the band expanded into a rock band with an electronic influence in 2023 with their second album \u201cEternal Blame\u201d. Watch out, it’s DIY!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Ines Linn<\/h2>\n

Indie-folk-pop<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/www.ineslinnmusic.de\/<\/strong><\/p>\n

Breathe in, breathe out – breathe deeply. The music of indie folk musician Ines Linn picks you up where life begins. The music comes on, the noise inside you goes out. Poetic-metaphorical lyrics meet the piano, which carries you through the songs together with delicate drums. Delicate guitar picking tickles your ear on one side while the warm cello purrs on the other. It’s about sensitivity and love. To oneself and others and to nature. It’s about being able to lose yourself and find yourself. A deep dive into the now. Right here.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Sparclub<\/h2>\n

Punk rock<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/sparclub.bandcamp.com\/album\/proberaum\/<\/p>\n

Hamburg noise band – come to the club, fuck saving money! They certainly don’t skimp on decibels. But they do save on long words and complicated melodies. But “Hello Tinnitus!”. <\/p>\n

The Sparclubers* who have been leading the way have been rehearsing the noise since the end of 2020 and making their music without dudes who know everything better. FLINTA*people to the front! See you at the club.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Punk rock<\/strong>
\nhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/annieanyway\/<\/p>\n

Guitar, bass, drums and everyone gets to sing. Based on solid punk rock, Annie Anyway play musically all around and in terms of content across all moods and situations in life. With English and German lyrics, polyphonic vocals and varying rhythm structures, there are always surprises in store – especially for the three girls from Hamburg themselves.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Mamille\"<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Mamille<\/strong><\/p>\n

MAMILLE is a solo project from Hamburg, somewhere between singer\/songwriter and soul pop. Behind it is Mascha, who has been living there for 8 years. She writes and produces her own songs. Mascha finds it difficult to define her genre, but that’s not a bad thing! <\/span><\/p>\n

In her songs, she addresses topics that revolve around friendship or tell of relationship models, patriarchal annoyances, and world-weariness. In other words, whatever needs to be said! <\/span><\/p>\n
