Kulturarena Jena | Ebow & Bia Ferreira

In the organizer's words:

Throwback to the year 2023. After an incredible concert evening, this question was heard more than once: "WHY wasn't this sold out?" Son Rompe Pera and Bia Ferreira were there - along with almost 800 other guests who were able to experience a very special musical moment. We still can't find a good answer to the question. Big names sell better. The money is kept together and only invested in selected acts. Like this, perhaps? It also has a good side: an appreciative audience. Nobody is waiting for THE hyped hit XY, where all smartphones shoot up at the same time and the "live concert" is followed via the display, only to share it briefly on social media and then probably never watch it again. People were only there for the music.

There's a chance for a second special encounter! Bia Ferreira will be playing in Jena once again! The Brazilian singer, composer, artist and multi-instrumentalist reached more than 14 million views on YouTube with the song Cota Não É Esmola, recently played over 50 shows in the USA, Canada and Europe and also touched people with her incomparable aura at many small, intimate concerts. The singer is against racism, homophobia and other forms of violence, and sings intensely and powerfully for love. For equality. For togetherness without hate. She always sees herself as an instrument of music - this wonderful art that she loves so much. We are looking forward to a great and valuable treasure of the music world and a great person!

The other strong woman of the evening fits in like a glove: Ebru Düzgün aka. Ebow already introduced herself at the Kulturarena 2022 club evening at Kassa. It's time to give her feminine, courageous, queer and experimental German rap and her explicitly political messages a little more space, let them swirl around in the open air and enjoy them without reservation.

The Munich-born rapper and singer with Kurdish-Alevi roots not only carries a turbulent and rebellious youth with fights, tails and reprimands in her backpack. She also studied architecture at Bachelor's level in Munich and at Master's level in Vienna, and currently lives and works in Berlin. The immediate concentration of this list alone makes it impossible to put a stamp on it. Fortunately.

With four albums released to date, Ebow has long since established himself as one of the most important

voices in German rap. "She writes politically correct and grammatically incorrect lyrics about contempt for women in her scene and contempt for foreigners in her country" - as ZEIT puts it. Now she's packing her latest album FC CHAYA with indie rock influences, RnB and Y2K cloud rap aesthetics into her rucksack and heading off - including to Jena.
