Nala Tessloff (Germany) Live

1 September @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm

R120

Nala Tessloff is a singer/songwriter/producer and visual artist from Hamburg, Germany. In March 2024, she released her sombre and soulful solo debut, ‘Daydream,’ which features influences from her work in pop, film music, high culture, and performance art.

What does a lullaby for a dream sound like? How does it feel to rush parallel to the course of the world and still lose touch in your isolation? What would it be like not living up to your expectations and throwing them away?

Nala Tessloff asks herself these questions in her songs and finds only one answer in her brokenness: there is also beauty and truth in giving up, in failure. This is evident in her voice, which is given enough space to unfold in her productions.

They give space to discover a (true) strength in one’s weakness. They are finely curated sounds in which one may feel protected and let oneself go. Or as Nala herself describes it: “The songs don’t want anything. They are rather something I just had to get rid of. I hope to touch people and give comfort, maybe just by knowing that they aren’t alone with a feeling.”

In this sense, Nala’s songs speak a universal language that is accessible and embracing. And in the end, there is the important realization that we all share the same emotions and are connected through them.

Doors open at 5pm and show starts at 8pm
