Free, outdoors and under palm trees: this summer, the DURCHLÜFTEN music festival will once again transform the Humboldt Forum's large Schlüterhof courtyard into a lively meeting place for sound, rhythm and culture.
Over four weekends, music from all over the world will radiate from the stage: from the raw energy of Mexican cumbia punk to the hypnotic groove of Kenyan dodo blues, from the electrifying syncopation of Congolese soukous to the powerful messages of Afrofuturist big bands. Japanese folk with a Caribbean influence, soulful jazz, hip-hop and the joy and resilience of the Frafra gospel round off this celebration of sound - boundless, multi-perspective and irresistibly danceable!
Lollise (Botswana, USA)
Lollise is a musician, visual artist and fashion designer from Botswana, currently based in New York City. She uses sound, color and movement to tell stories of real and imagined worlds - multi-layered, multi-dimensional, historical and futuristic at the same time. Her performances are characterized by powerful energy and a deep devotion of body and mind to music.
Lollise creates hybrid songs for the now, inspired by the music she grew up with - Setswana and Kalanga folk songs, South African bubblegum and kwaito of the 80s and 90s, Congolese soukous and Zimbabwean sungura - and by the influences she encountered in New York, including Afrobeat, New Wave and Art Pop.
