Performing their original music at Kunstinstituut Melly, Tribes of Mars will share a set made for dancing. Originating from diverse age groups and cultural, musical, and geographical backgrounds – from improvisation to pop to funk, from Africa to the Caribbean – the group will combine their sounds into a seamless composition. In between songs, they will explore the acoustics of the gallery space, blending and processing them live with effects. Challenging both the spatial dynamics and the rhythm of the listeners, they will incorporate quick mood changes and surprising extensions to keep listeners on their toes.
