MABE FRATTI / TOMO KATSURADA Doppelkonzert

In the organizer's words:

EN

"The best avant-garde pop cellist since Arthur Russell" (Uncut) meets the founder of the Japanese psychedelic band Kikagaku Moyo, who presents his solo project with transcendental music for picture books.

Mabe Fratti combines experimental cello playing with rock, jazz and feedback loops to create a delightful form of pop music. On her new solo album "Sentir Que No Sabes" (Unheard of Hope), now her fourth in five years, the Guatemalan musician from Mexico City sings with her fragile dream-pop voice to drums, guitars and cello riffs that "make you forget everything you know about the stylistic boundaries of current pop music" (Der Spiegel). From the grungy opener "Kravitz", dedicated to rock icon Lenny, to the 80s pop song "Pantalla azul", the album tells of a curious plunge into the unknown - "extremely melodic, constantly surprising and undoubtedly fantastic" (The Guardian). Before that, Tomo Katsurada shows what ethereal heights the cello can reach. The co-founder and singer of the legendary Japanese psych-rock band Kikagaku Moyo, who played at the summer festival in 2019, sets picture books to music with ambient guitar, fragile cello playing and super-soft vocals. On the first EP of a planned series, "Yume No Tamago (Dream of the Egg)", based on a book by Japanese artist Shoko Otake, Katsurada has set his own dream to music shortly before it hatches from an egg: spirituality in sound, for indie kids and sound fetishists alike, who will all get their money's worth on this avant-pop evening.

Mabe Fratti blends experimental cello playing, rock, jazz, and feedback loops into an exhilarating pop sound. On her fourth solo album in five years, "Sentir Que No Sabes" (Unheard of Hope), the Guatemala-born, Mexico City-based musician pairs her delicate dream-pop vocals with drums, guitars, and cello riffs that urge listeners to "forget everything they know about stylistic boundaries in pop music" (Der Spiegel). From the grungy, Lenny Kravitz-inspired opener to the shimmering 80s pop track "Pantalla azul," Fratti's songs explore the unknown with curiosity - "abundantly melodic, constantly surprising, and unequivocally fantastic" (The Guardian). Opening the evening, Tomo Katsurada, co-founder of the legendary psych-rock band Kikagaku Moyo, presents ambient guitar and delicate cello compositions inspired by picture books, creating spiritual music equally compelling for indie kids and sonic explorers alike.
