SIKSA + STURLE​ DAGSLAND

SIKSA (Yiddish: שיקסע, romanized: shikse, disparaging word for a young woman percieved as vulgar, inexperienced and immature) is a feminist duo arranged for voice, bass, lyrics and bodies. SIKSA’s concerts combine the energy of a punk concert, performative poetry or contemporary dance. Thanks to the interaction with the audience, every show acquires unique dramatic qualities. In the limitations of the instruments and stage presence, the duo finds the strength to carve their own path. Sometimes it’s based on childhood memories, other times on fairy tales and legends, or reality transformed by the uninhibited and unrestrained vision of SIKSA. In her work, the personal meets the political, and the unspoken meets the deafening. Sturle Dagsland is a highly acclaimed genre-bending artist from Norway. With a wild and unique performance he captivates the audience and takes the listeners on an adventurous, surreal and beautiful journey. Touring frequently at festivals all across the world, from Shanghai to New York, he creates music with a dark, ethereal and irrefutable intensity that enchants the audience and leaves no one feeling indifferent
