Ada Oda

In the organizer's words:

Italian post-punk from the Brussels underground? Ada Oda offers an energetic mix of music at the crossroads of eighties rock and Italian pop. The project was launched in 2020 by César Laloux (The Tellers, BRNS, Italian Boyfriend), who met Victoria Barracato on Tinder and suggested she sing in Italian on his tracks because of the consonance of her name. Victoria accepted the challenge and the foundation stone for the project was laid.

César's sober songs describe, with a touch of irony, his view of love, betrayal and the generation that surrounds him. His lyrics were first translated into Italian and then adapted by Victoria, the daughter of a Sicilian immigrant.

On stage and in the studio, the duo is accompanied by Clément Marion on bass (David Numwami, Judith Kiddo), Alex De Bueger on drums (Alaska Gold Rush, Gros Cœur) and Aurélien Gainetdinoff (San Malo, Yolande Bashing) on guitar.

The band released their first album "Un amore debole" at the end of November 2022 on 62TV Records/PIAS and are currently working on a new LP to be released in the first quarter of 2025.

Their first headline show in Berlin will take place on 17.09.2024 at Monarch!
