SUMMARY:Vocal Performance - Do you see what I’m singing?
DESCRIPTION:This is a vocal performance that invites the audience to dissolve into a multisensory experience and explore the connection between Danish and Irish vocal traditions. \nAccording to Danish mythology\, Odin gained wisdom\, poetry\, and magic by sacrificing one of his eyes. In Ireland\, there is a long tradition of wisdom and otherworldly insight embodied by the blind seer. Blind musicians such as Turlough O’Carolan and bards like Antoine Ó Raifteiri captured the sounds\, stories\, and rhythms of life around them in haunting music and poetry that still resonate today. \nIn this performance\, the audience is invited to soften the dominance of sight and open themselves to the gifts that can emerge through a deeper connection to hearing—inner resonance\, imagination—and touch. Blindfolds will be available to support this sensory exploration. \nThe performance is created through an international collaboration between singer-songwriters Emilie Conway and Sussie Luscinia Nielsen\, sound artist David Navndrup Black\, and dancers from the FIMD group Dråbe. \nThe performance will be in Danish\, English\, and Gaelic. \nDuration: 40 minutes \nThe venue is wheelchair accessible. You can find detailed accessibility information about Dansekapellet online here \nSingers: Emilie Conway and Sussie Luscinia NielsenSound artist: David Navndrup BlackDancers: Paulina Rewucka\, Lisa Dahlkild\, Bettina Stoholm\, Tom Sonntag\, Piyanah Hassing\, Nikolaj Grenbo\, Inge Marie Baiocchi\, and Agata Rutkowska \nPhoto credit: Henning Sjøstrøm \n \nDette er en vokal performance\, der inviterer publikum til at forsvinde ind i en multisensorisk oplevelse og udforske forbindelsen mellem den danske og den irske vokalkultur. \nIfølge dansk mytologi opnåede Odin visdom\, poesi og magi\, da han ofrede sit ene øje. I Irland findes der en lang tradition for visdommen og de overjordiske indsigter hos den blinde seer. Blinde musikere som Turlough O’Carolon og barder som Antoine O’Raifteiri indfangede lydene\, historierne og livets rytmer omkring dem i den hjemsøgende musik og poesi\, som stadig findes i dag. \nI denne performance inviteres publikum til at skrue ned for den dominerende sans – synet – og åbne sig for de gaver\, der kan opstå gennem en dybere forbindelse til hørelsen\, (indre resonans\, fantasi?) og berøringen. Der vil være bind til øjnene til rådighed for publikum for at understøtte denne sanselige udforskning. \nPerformancen er skabt gennem et internationalt samarbejde mellem singer-songwritere Emilie Conway og Sussie Luscinia Nielsen\, lydkunstner David Navndrup Black samt dansere fra FIMD-gruppen Dråbe. \nPerformancen vil være på dansk\, engelsk og gælisk. \nVarighed: 40 min \nDer er adgang til arrangementet i kørestol. Du kan finde detaljeret information om adgangsforholdene i Dansekapellet her. \nSangere: Emilie Conway og Sussie Luscinia Nielsen\nLydkunstner: David Navndrup Black\nDansere: Paulina Rewucka\, Lisa Dahlkild\, Bettina Stoholm\, Tom Sonntag\, Piyanah Hassing\, Nikolaj Grenbo\, Inge Marie Baiocchi og Agata Rutkowska \nFotokreditering: Henning Sjøstrøm

SUMMARY:BERLIN BERLIN
DESCRIPTION:Berlin between the 1920s and 1930s is a city full of contrasts and a dance on the edge of a volcano!

SUMMARY:Concert with Irish group Na Leanaí
DESCRIPTION:Famous Folk Family from Northern Ireland\nThe Northern Irish band Na Leanaí – meaning “the children” – consists of cousins from the world-famous The Sands Family. They have inherited the talent and carry on the tradition with great style. \nThey performed at Copenhagen Folk Club a few years ago – representing the younger generation of the Northern Irish musical family\, The Sands Family from County Down. Now they return for a welcome reunion and encore performance as Na Leanaí\, which quite simply means “the children.” \nNa Leanaí are cousins who have clearly inherited both a remarkable musical talent and a deep interest in traditional music. They were immersed in it throughout their childhood and youth\, often accompanying their parents on tours around the world. \nMuch of their upbringing was spent visiting venues and concert halls across the globe—backstage\, behind the scenes\, and in the wings—though not quite on stage themselves. Still\, the music made a lasting impression. They learned from some of the finest and most successful musicians\, and in 2014 they fully committed to their own musical journey\, releasing their debut album in 2015. \nSorcha Turnbull\, Ryanne Sands\, Eimear Keane\, and Fra Sands naturally began with traditional Irish folk music\, which they had absorbed through their close-knit and accomplished family. Their beautiful voices were a given\, and Na Leanaí quickly developed their own strong family harmonies. Blending new and old elements\, they soon found their own path to success\, touring extensively and appearing multiple times at the Skagen Festival—which they will also attend again this year. \nSo far\, they have released two albums: Kindred Roots (2015) and Branching Out (2017). Surely\, more can be expected soon. \nThey have already achieved success across (especially) European stages\, thanks to their fresh energy and approach to traditional music—an invaluable musical heritage passed down from various members of the Sands Family. Na Leanaí both recognise and embrace their rich musical roots and the unique advantage of having been raised so closely connected to the tradition. \nTheir music has been described as having a “transatlantic flavour” and as being “full-bodied with strong dynamics.” Combined with deeply felt traditions and their close proximity to the music from an early age\, the result is nothing short of exhilarating. \nThe four members of Na Leanaí are living proof of the saying “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree\,” and they have certainly had the best possible foundation for creating something truly special. Their success in shaping their own sound—with songs in both Irish and English\, and beautifully blended voices—can be experienced live on this special evening. \nSorcha Turnbull is the daughter of Anne Sands\, Ryanne Sands is the daughter of Ben Sands\, Eimear Keane is also the daughter of Anne Sands\, and Fra Sands is the son of Hugh Sands. Moya Sands is the daughter of Tommy Sands (though not a member of this group\, as far as known). \nNa Leanaí play violins\, flutes\, guitar\, and percussion. \n\n \n\nBerømt folk-familie fra Nordirland\nDet nordirske band Na Leanai\, som betyder ”børnene”. De unge mennesker er kusiner og fætter fra den verdens berømte The Sands Family. De har arvet talentet og fører det flot videre. \n\n\nDe spillede i Copenhagen Folk Club for få år siden – den unge generation af den nordirske musikfamilie: The Sands Family fra County Down. Hermed et gensyn og genhør med Na Leanai\, som ganske enkelt betyder ’børnene’. \nNa Leanai er kusiner og fætter\, som i høj grad har arvet det store talent for musikken og interessen for den traditionelle musik. De fik den da også serveret i lange baner op gennem barn- og ungdommen\, når de mange gange var med deres respektive forældre på turneer rundt i verden. \nDeres barndom bestod ret meget i at besøge og være med rundt på alverdens spillesteder og koncertsale. Bagom\, nedenunder\, ude i kulisserne – dog ikke lige med på scenen. Men musikken gjorde i al fald indtryk og hang ved\, og de lærte da også fra nogle af de bedste og mest succesfulde musikere. I 2014 sprang de for alvor ud i musikkarrieren med første album ude i 2015. \nSorcha Turnbull\, Ryanne Sands\, Eimear Keane og Fra Sands startede naturligt nok med den traditionelle\, irske folkemusik\, som de altså havde lært løbende fra deres succesrige og nære familie. De fine stemmer var en selvfølge\, så Na Leanai skabte hurtigt deres egne stærke familieharmonier\, og med et fint mix af nye og gamle elementer fandt de hurtigt vejen til egen succes med masser af turneer\, bl.a. jo med Skagen Festival på programmet flere gange. De kommer også på Skagen i år. \nIndtil videre har de dog kun ndspillet to albums\, nemlig Kindred Roots (2015) og Branching Out (2017). Mon ikke man snart kan forvente flere. \nSuccesen er i hus rundt omkring på (især) de europæiske scener med bandets friske energi og tilgang til traditionel musik\, som de altså har været så heldige at få som værdifuldt arvegods fra diverse Sands Familiy-medlemmer. Na Leanai kender og erkender deres meget musikalske gener og den åbenbare fordel ved at få den serveret på den måde\, de fik fra en tidlig alder. \nMusikken har\, som det er blevet sagt\, ”transatlantic flavour” og beskrives som ”fuld af krop og stærk dynamik. ” Lægger man så oveni dybfølte traditioner og det faktum\, at børnene netop var tæt med i det hele\, tæt på musikken og dynamikken\, ja\, så kan det kun blive forrygende. \nDe fire Na Leanai er levende beviser på talemåden om\, at “æblet sjældent falder langt fra stammen”\, og de har sandelig også haft de allerbedste forudsætninger for at levere noget helt specielt. At de er lykkedes med at skabe deres eget udtryk med sange på både irsk og engelsk\, med smukke stemmer som passer perfekt sammen\, kan man forvisse sig om denne aften. \nSorcha Turnbull er datter af Anne Sands\, Ryanne Sands er datter af Ben Sands\, Eimear Keane er også datter af Anne Sands og Fra Sands er søn af Hugh Sands. Moya Sands (men ikke med så vidt vides) er datter af Tommy Sands. Na Leanai spiller violiner\, fløjter\, guitar og percussion.

Almost Irish er et velkendt og elsket ansigt på den danske folk-scene og har i årevis turneret landet tyndt\, hvor de gang på gang beviser\, at den irske sjæl kan trives i bedste velgående i Danmark.

Du kan forvente at høre alt fra de melankolske ballader\, der fortæller rørende historier som “Skibbereen” og den smukke “The Auld Triangle”\, til de tempofyldte\, dansable jigs og reels. De byder både på klassikere og deres egne smukke fortolkninger\, ofte i selskab med dygtige musikere som Chris McMullan.\nDet\, der gør Almost Irish til noget helt særligt\, er deres evne til at skabe en intimitetsfyldt og festlig atmosfære. Deres koncerter er mere end blot en fremførelse af musik; det er en invitation ind i et fællesskab. Uanset om de synger om søfartslivet i “Go to Sea Once More” eller om de strabadser\, der ligger i landbruget\, leveres historierne med en energi og humor\, der får tårer og latter til at ligge tæt. Deres “Folk Brothers” dynamik skinner igennem på scenen og skaber en varm\, uformel stemning\, hvor alle føler sig hjemme.\nGrib chancen for at opleve denne unikke folk-oplevelse.

SUMMARY:Debate with Professor Sara Dybris McQuaid: Northern Ireland and the Long Road to Peace
DESCRIPTION:Nordirland: Forandring\, udfordringer og den lange og snoede vej mod fred\nDen 10. april 1998 blev den historiske Belfastaftale/Langfredagsaftale underskrevet i Belfast\, Nordirland. Det markerede den officielle afslutning på 30 års konflikt – men var det virkelig så enkelt? \nPå 28-året for aftalen byder Studieskolen velkommen til lektor Sara Dybris McQuaid (Aarhus Universitet) og en analyse og debat om forandringer\, udfordringer og konflikter i Nordirland siden 1998. \nAftalen løste ikke straks alle modsætningerne i landet. Den helede heller ikke de mange samfundsmæssige brud\, som var kommet med flere årtiers vold. \nSara har ekspertise inden for international konflikt og fred og fredsprocessen i Nordirland. Hun stiller skarpt på nogle centrale spørgsmål som: \n\n\n\nHvordan vender et samfund “tilbage til normalen”\, når relationer\, institutioner og normer har lidt et alvorligt sammenbrud?\nHvad er de vigtigste udfordringer i fredsopbygning\nHvilke udfordringer står Nordirland overfor i dag – fra politisk dysfunktion til konsekvenserne af Brexit?\nHvordan kan Nordirland bevæge sig fremad i forholdet til resten af Storbritannien og Republikken Irland?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeltag i debatten \nEfter oplægget får du mulighed for at stille spørgsmål og drøfte dem. Du kan vælge at tale om de emner\, oplægget tager op\, eller bringe andre spørgsmål på banen\, som du mener er relevante. \nDu behøver ikke at tale perfekt engelsk – bare kom\, hvis du har lyst til at deltage\, lytte og dele dine indtryk. Samtalen foregår på engelsk i et tempo\, som alle kan følge med i. \nSara Dybris McQuaid (ph.d.) er lektor i britisk og irsk historie\, samfund og kultur ved Aarhus Universitet. Som samtidshistoriker og politolog arbejder hun på tværs af freds- og konfliktstudier og erindringsstudier. Hun har fokus på\, hvordan samfund husker\, glemmer og arkiverer deres fortid – særligt i relation til fredsprocessen i Nordirland. Hun er i øjeblikket ved at færdiggøre en bog med titlen Administrations of Memory and the Politics of the “post-“: Northern Ireland 1994–2024. \nDet foregår:\nFredag den 10. april 2026 kl. 16.00-17.40\nBorgergade 14\, 1. sal\, lokale 131\nAlle er velkomne. Det er gratis\, men du skal tilmelde dig. \nTilmelding: https://www.studieskolen.dk/en/about-us/events/tilmelding/4055-26-p4-26 \n\nChange\, Challenges and the Long and Winding Road to Peace\nOn 10 April 1998\, the historic Belfast/Good Friday Agreement was signed in Belfast\, Northern Ireland. It marked the official end to 30 years of conflict – but was it as simple as that? \nOn the 28th anniversary of the agreement\, Studieskolen welcomes Associate Professor Sara Dybris McQuaid (Aarhus University) for an analysis and debate on change\, challenges and conflicts in Northern Ireland since 1998. \nThe Agreement did not immediately resolve all the underlying contradictions. It also failed to heal the many societal fractures caused by decades of violence. \nSara has expertise in conflict transformation and the Northern Ireland peace process. She will explore some key questions such as: \n\n\n\nHow does a society go “back to normal” when there has been a serious breakdown of relations\, institutions and norms?\nWhat are the main challenges in peacebuilding?\nWhat challenges does Northern Ireland face today – from political dysfunction to the impact of Bexit?\nHow can Northern Ireland go forward in relation to the rest of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland?\n\n\n\nJoin the debate \nAfter the talk\, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss them. You can choose to talk about the topics brought up in the talk or add any other questions you have that are related \nYou don’t need to speak perfect English – just come if you want to participate\, listen\, and share your impressions. The conversation will take place in English at a pace that everyone can follow. \nSara Dybris McQuaid (PhD) is Associate Professor in British and Irish History\, Society and Culture at Aarhus University.

SUMMARY:Seamus Fogarty + Samantha Whates & Ida Wenøe
DESCRIPTION:Three outstanding voices from the contemporary folk scene unite vulnerability\, beauty\, and musical curiosity in a deeply moving concert experience.\n\nSeamus Fogarty\nSeamus Fogarty grew up on Ireland’s west coast but has been based in London since 2011. \nWith each release\, Fogarty has refined a truly distinctive style\, marked by a singular\, emotive\, and inquisitive approach to music-making. Fragmented electronic sounds collide with melodic fragments\, drones\, and field recordings. His songs challenge the core elements of traditional styles such as folk\, blues\, and country. Fogarty is far more interested in twisting and reshaping music into something entirely different—a world of softly motoric basslines\, twanging banjos\, and drifting\, swelling strings. \nFogarty has toured extensively across the UK\, Ireland\, and Europe\, performing at prominent festivals including Green Man\, Eurosonic\, Latitude\, Electric Picnic\, Moseley Folk\, and Haldern Pop. \nThe Guardian awarded Fogarty five stars\, writing:“Magical journeys through fable and modern life and back again\, often in the same song.” \nSamantha Whates\nSamantha Whates is a highly respected artist on the British folk and roots scene. Her beautiful\, poetic songs capture both the pain and the beauty of human life\, while maintaining a strong connection to her Scottish roots. \nWhates has developed her own distinctive fingerpicking technique\, and her songs are structurally bold. Her pure\, clear voice meets raw field recordings and is enriched by unconventional choral arrangements. Samantha’s skills in vocal harmony have taken her far—from worldwide tours with Noel Gallagher\, to praise from Dolly Parton\, and now to near-symbiotic recordings and live collaborations with Ida Wenøe. \nIda Wenøe\nIda Wenøe has carved out her own musical territory by blending international influences such as Nick Drake\, Joni Mitchell\, and Beth Gibbons with her roots\, which range from traditional folk music and the Danish Højskolesangbogen to inspiration from English folk. \nShe has performed hundreds of concerts across Europe and North America\, earning a reputation as an intense and powerful live performer. \nIda Wenøe works with a condensed\, evocative form of storytelling\, often drawing inspiration from nature. Her voice carries both fragility and strength\, echoing folk traditions of the 1960s and 1970s while always retaining a distinctive personal touch. The accompaniment is characterised by subtle yet insistent guitar work\, supported by violin\, double bass\, and flutes—and\, not least\, soaring vocal harmonies. \nIn 2021\, she won a Danish Music Award as “Danish Roots Artist of the Year\,” and Clash Magazine describes her as:“Bewitching acid folk with a deeply personal edge.” \n \nSeamus Fogarty\nSeamus Fogarty er opvokset på Irlands vestkyst\, men har boet i London siden 2011. \nFor hver udgivelse har Fogarty forfinet sin helt egen unikke stil\, kendetegnet ved en særpræget\, bevægende og undersøgende tilgang til musikken. Fragmenterede elektroniske lyde kolliderer med melodistumper\, droner og feltoptagelser. Hans sange udfordrer de grundlæggende elementer i traditionelle stilarter som folk\, blues og country. Fogarty er langt mere interesseret i at vride og dreje musikken til noget helt andet – en verden af blødt motoriske basgange\, twangende banjoer og svævende\, brusende strygere. \nFogarty har turneret vidt og bredt i Storbritannien\, Irland og Europa og har optrådt på mange markante festivaler\, herunder Green Man\, Eurosonic\, Latitude\, Electric Picnic\, Mosely Folk og Haldern Pop. \nThe Guardian giver Fogarty 5 stjerner\, og skriver følgende ‘Magical journeys through fable and modern life and back again\, often in the same song’ \nSamantha Whates\nSamantha Whates er en højt respekteret kunstner på den britiske folk- og roots scene. Hendes smukke og poetiske sange fanger både smerten og skønheden i menneskelivet\, og hun har bevaret en stærk forbindelse til sine skotske rødder. \nWhates har udviklet sin helt egen fingerspilsteknik\, og sangene er strukturelt dristige. Den rene og klare stemme møder rå feltoptagelser og krydres med utraditionelle korstemmer. Samanthas evner indenfor korarbejde har ført hende vidt omkring – på verdensomspændende turneer med Noel Gallagher\, til ros fra Dolly Parton og nu i næsten symbiotiske indspilninger og live-samarbejder med Ida Wenøe. \nIda Wenøe\nIda Wenøe har skabt sit eget musikalske ståsted ved at sammenblande udenlandske forbilleder som Nick Drake\, Joni Mitchell og Beth Gibbons med sine rødder\, der spænder fra traditionel folkemusik over Højskolesangbogen til inspiration fra engelsk folk. \nHun har spillet hundredvis af koncerter over hele Europa og Nordamerika og har opbygget et ry som en intens og stærk liveperformer. \nIda Wenøe arbejder med en fortættet historiefortælling\, hvor hun ofte bruger naturen som inspiration. Stemmen har både nerve og styrke\, og trækker tråde til 60’ernes og 70’ernes folk-traditioner\, men giver alligevel altid musikken sit helt eget touch. Akkompagnementet er kendetegnet ved subtilt men insisterende guitarspil\, flankeret af violin\, kontrabas og fløjter\, og ikke mindst svævende vokalharmonier. \nI 2021 vandt hun en Danish Music Award som “Årets Danske Roots Kunstner” og Clash Magazine beskriver hende som “Bewitching acid folk with a deeply personal edge.”

SUMMARY:The Divine Comedy
DESCRIPTION:The Divine Comedy in VEGA \nThroughout his 36-year long career\, Neil Hannon\, the driving force behind The Divine Comedy\, has released uncompromising\, intelligent lyrics that match his quirky chamber pop compositions without any hesitation.  \nFans can now rejoice that the thirteenth album of his solo project is just around the corner. In September\, the pop master is back with a new album\, Rainy Sunday Afternoon. He will be taking that and Hannon’s entire impressive back catalogue with him on his 2026 tour\, where Lille VEGA on. March 22 will be the setting for another one of The Divine Comedy’s legendary concerts. \nWith its contrasting chamber pop\, which English music critics have associated with The Cure\, Morrissey and Blur\, The Divine Comedy has gathered an impressive fan base. \nDanish reviewers have showered Hannon’s Danish concerts with stars. The last time Neil Hannon filled Lille VEGA was in 2017. The paper Information sent Klaus Lynggaard to rewiew the concert and he described it as “superb”. In his review\, Lynggaard explains why one of Britain’s most recognized songwriters – despite worldwide popularity – is perfect in Lille VEGA’s smaller concert hall: “This is certainly due to the excessively high quality and excessive intelligence that Neil Hannon insists on displaying\, both lyrically and musically\, but it was paradoxically the audience’s luck\, because the intimacy and the whole atmosphere of celebration that characterized the event this Tuesday evening would certainly have been lost in a larger venue. Simply divine\, dear.” \n\nNye guddommelige sange fra The Divine Comedy i VEGA\n\nNeil Hannon\, der er drivkraften bag The Divine Comedy\, har gennem sin 36-årige lange karriere udgivet kompromisløse\, intelligente sangtekster\, der uden slinger i valsen matcher hans finurlige chamberpop-kompositioner. Og nu kan fans glæde sig over\, at soloprojektets trettende album er lige på trapperne. \nFor til september er popmesteren tilbage med et nyt album\, Rainy Sunday Afternoon. Dét og hele Hannons imponerende bagkatalog tager han med på sin 2026-tour\, hvor Lille VEGA den. 22 marts danner rammer for endnu en af The Divine Comedys legendariske koncerter. \nMed sin kontrastfylde kammerpop\, som af engelske musikkritikere er blevet associeret med The Cure\, Morrissey og Blur\, har The Divine Comedy samlet sig en imponerede fanskare. Og de danske anmeldere har ladet stjernerne regne ned over Hannons danske koncerter. \nSidst Neil Hannon blæste Lille VEGA fuld af velorkestreret popmusik var i 2017. Her havde Dagbladet Information sendt Klaus Lynggaard\, der beskrev koncerten som “suveræn”. \nI sin anmeldelse forklarer Lynggaard\, hvorfor at en af Storbritanniens mest anerkendte sangskrivere – på trods af verdensomspændende popularitet – er perfekt i netop Lille VEGAs mindre koncertrum: \n“Det skyldes givetvis den alt for høje kvalitet og overdrevne intelligens\, Neil Hannon insisterer at lægge for dagen\, tekstligt som musikalsk\, men det var så paradoksalt nok publikums held\, for den intimitet og hele stemning af fest\, der prægede foretagendet denne tirsdag aften\, ville givetvis være gået tabt på en større venue. Simply divine\, dear.”

SUMMARY:CMAT
DESCRIPTION:Fremadstormende CMAT mikser pop og country i VEGA\n\nDet er de færreste musikere\, der fremhæver både Dolly Parton og Katy Perry som musikalske forbilleder. Men inspirationskilderne giver perfekt mening\, når man lytter til CMAT’s panoramiske solskinspop med en laber understrøm af country-feeling. \nIrske Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson – hvis kunstnernavn er en sammentrækning af forbogstaverne i hendes rigtige navn – har de seneste år markeret sig som et af de mest spændende nye popnavne. Hun er bl.a. blevet sammenlignet med amerikanske Chappell Roan og engelske Lola Young\, men CMAT er sit eget unikke popvæsen\, der elegant bygger bro mellem tradition og nutid. \n2022-debuten If My Wife New I’d Be Dead er en formidabel blanding af øremasserende melodier og tekster\, der med humoristisk overskud kredser om bl.a. kærlighed\, knuste hjerter og mentalt helbred. Opfølgeren Crazymad\, for Me (2023) bygger ubesværet videre på forgængerens kvaliteter og blev i 2024 nomineret til den prestigiøse britiske albumpris Mercury Prize. Og den 29. august udkommer hendes tredje studiealbum Euro-Country\, hvorfra de fremragende singleforløbere har varmet op til endnu en suveræn albumoplevelse. \nHerhjemme har mange musikelskere fået ørerne op for det irske kraftværk via hendes koncerter på Roskilde Festival 2024 og SYD FOR SOLEN 2025. Sidstnævnte show honorerede GAFFA med 5 funklende stjerner og følgende opfordring: ”Hvis du mangler idéer til din næste ønskeliste\, så skal CMAT-billetter stå helt i toppen”. \nNu kan man opdatere ønskesedlen\, for den 21. marts 2026 vender CMAT tilbage til Danmark\, hvor hun præsenterer sangene fra sit nye album i Store VEGA. \n \nUp-and-coming CMAT mixes pop and country in VEGA\nFew musicians cite both Dolly Parton and Katy Perry as musical role models. However\, these sources of inspiration make perfect sense when you listen to CMAT’s panoramic sunshine pop with an undercurrent of country vibes. \nIrish Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson – whose stage name is a contraction of the initials of her real name – has in recent years distinguished herself as one of the most exciting new pop names. She has been compared to\, among others\, American Chappell Roan and English Lola Young\, but CMAT is her own unique pop entity\, elegantly bridging tradition and the present. \nHer 2022 debut If My Wife New I’d Be Dead is a formidable mix of ear-massaging melodies and lyrics that\, with humorous excess\, revolve around\, among other things\, love\, broken hearts and mental health. The follow-up Crazymad\, for Me (2023) effortlessly builds on the qualities of its predecessor and was nominated for the prestigious British album award Mercury Prize in 2024. And on August 29\, her third studio album Euro-Country will be released\, from which the excellent single precursors have warmed up to another superb album experience. \nHere in Denmark\, many music lovers have opened their ears to the Irish powerhouse via her concerts at Roskilde Festival 2024 and SYD FOR SOLEN 2025. The latter show honored GAFFA with 5 sparkling stars and the following invitation: “If you need ideas for your next wish list\, CMAT tickets should be at the top.” Now you can update your wishlist\, because on March 21\, 2026\, CMAT will return to Denmark\, where she will sing the songs from her new album at Store VEGA.”

SUMMARY:Dea Matrona i VEGA
DESCRIPTION:Et magisk rock-trylleslag fra Dea Matrona i VEGA\n\nIrske Dea Matrona  laver harmonisk rock\, der sender anerkendende nik til rock-koryfæer som Fleetwood Mac\, Led Zeppelin og The Beatles. \nDe to medlemmer og multiinstrumentalister Orláith Forsythe og Mollie McGinn fandt hinanden i 2017 gennem en fælles kærlighed til netop de førnævnte bands. På scenen veksler de indbyrdes mellem at være forsanger\, guitarist\, bassist og spille andre instrumenter. \nDebutalbummet\, For Your Sins\, landede i foråret 2024\, og så sent som i oktober udgav gruppen deres første single i mere end et år. “Magic Spell” hedder nummeret\, hvis alternative rock-lyd\, feminine energi\, mørke romantik og mystiske stemning\, uden tvivl vil appellere til fans af The Last Dinner Party\, Greta Van Fleet og Wolf Alice. \nOprindeligt ernærede de to kvinder sig som gademusikanter i hjembyen Belfast\, og som om det næsten var skrevet i stjernerne\, var det naturligvis et cover af heltene Fleetwood Macs “Oh Well”\, der i 2020 fik de to kvinder til at gå viralt på de sociale medier. \nDet fik for alvor snebolden til at rulle for Dea Matrona\, og pludselig blev det til gæsteoptrædener på The Late Late Show med sangen “Make You My Star”\, der også toppede de britiske og irske rockhitlister. \nTrods flere tilbud fra store pladeselskaber\, har Dea Matrona takket nej og vedligeholdt deres status som indie-darlings. Man kan således være sikker på\, at det er to powerkvinder med integritet og ben i næsen\, der gæster Ideal Bar den 20. marts. \n\n\n\nSupport: Mathilde Frontier\n\nMathilde Frontier skaber et feminint og storladent artpop-univers\, hvor elektronisk energi møder harmonisk\, følsom singer-songwriter-intimitet. \nMed sin krystalvokal synger hun om relationer\, personlig udvikling og det modige arbejde i at finde fred med sig selv. I foråret 2025 udkom første del af debutalbummet People Pleaser – Vol. 1 – en samling sange skrevet som et spejl for dem\, der forsøger at finde deres egen stemme i en verden\, der ofte taler højere end dem selv. \nFrontier har derudover spillet headliner på Petersburg Art Space i Berlin\, showcaset på Star of Kings og The Star In Shoreditch i London\, og åbnet for Fionn Regan\, Bernard Butler og No. 4.

SUMMARY:SPRINTS concert in Christiania
DESCRIPTION:The Irish garage punk quartet SPRINTS will hit the stage at Loppen on March 17\, 2026\, with a new lineup and a new album. With their critically acclaimed debut album Letter to Self (2024) and the explosive new album All That Is Over in their luggage\, SPRINTS are cementing their position as one of the most exciting voices in the modern punk rock scene. \nSPRINTS were formed in Dublin in 2019 and today consist of Karla Chubb (vocals\, guitar)\, Sam McCann (bass\, vocals)\, Jack Callan (drums)\, and the newest member Zac Stephenson (guitar). The band has undergone a remarkable development – both artistically and personally – and has built a dedicated fanbase through honest lyrics and a unique cocktail of intricate alternative rock combined with brutal bursts of noise punk and grunge. \nTheir new album\, All That Is Over\, was written in the midst of a time of personal upheaval and a world in turmoil – shaped by wars\, the climate crisis\, and a constant struggle for identity and justice. Lead singer Karla Chubb describes it as a work born out of necessity: \n“I wrote every day because there was so much to process. Breakups\, political crises\, identity – and at the same time the beauty of finding community in music and in each other.” \nSPRINTS’ live performances are known for their energy and authenticity – and with a new album and a new lineup\, SPRINTS are ready to take the stage with more strength\, confidence\, and raw intensity than ever before. \nDANSK \nDen irske garagepunk-kvartet SPRINTS rammer Loppen den 17. marts 2026 med et nyt line up og et nyt album. Med deres anmelderroste debutalbum ‘Letter to Self’ (2024) og det nye\, eksplosive album ‘All That Is Over’ i bagagen\, cementerer SPRINTS deres position som en af de mest spændende stemmer i den moderne punkrockscene. \nSPRINTS blev dannet i Dublin i 2019 og består i dag af Karla Chubb (vokal\, guitar)\, Sam McCann (bas\, vokal)\, Jack Callan (trommer) og det nyeste medlem Zac Stephenson (guitar). Bandet har gennemgået en bemærkelsesværdig udvikling – både kunstnerisk og personligt – og har opbygget en dedikeret fanbase gennem ærlige tekster og en unik cocktail af intrikat alternativ rock med brutale udbrud af støjpunk og grunge. \nDeres nye album\, All That Is Over\, er skrevet midt i en tid med personlig omvæltning og en verden i flammer – præget af krige\, klimakrise og en konstant kamp for identitet og retfærdighed. Forsanger Karla Chubb beskriver det som et værk skabt ud af nødvendighed: “Jeg skrev hver dag\, fordi der var så meget at bearbejde. Brud\, politiske kriser\, identitet – og samtidig det smukke i at finde fællesskab i musikken og i hinanden.” \nSPRINTS’ liveoptrædener er kendt for deres energi  og autenticitet – og med et nyt album og en ny lineup\, er SPRINTS klar til at tage scenen med mere styrke\, selvsikkerhed og rå nerve end nogensinde før.

SUMMARY:Concert with Irish-American group DUG
DESCRIPTION:Experience DUG’s unique blend of Irish and American folk when the duo behind the acclaimed singles Big Sundown and Jubilee take the stage at Musikcaféen.\nThere is a natural magnetism to DUG’s folk music. The duo—Conor (Lorkin) O’Reilly and Jonny Pickett—are preparing to release their debut album after forming in 2023\, yet it feels as though they’ve been writing together their entire lives. \nTheir music is rooted in traditions from both sides of the Atlantic. On one hand\, they echo the great American folk musicians; on the other\, they effortlessly channel the elder statesmen of Irish folk music. \nThis is no coincidence. DUG share a transatlantic musical heritage\, having been born in America and Scotland before settling in Ireland. O’Reilly himself spent nearly a decade writing and releasing music in upstate New York after leaving his hometown of Edinburgh (his mother is Irish and his father Scottish)\, before moving to Ireland in 2022 to begin a new musical chapter. \nYou can hear that lived musical experience in singles such as Big Sundown and Jubilee (the latter nominated for two Grammy Awards). Resonator guitar and banjo—the building blocks of DUG’s arrangements—lick and spin with intricate fingerpicking patterns that swirl together into a captivating whole. Their music breathes and vamps in perfect synchrony. \nThey’re also wickedly funny. DUG’s lyrics often catch you off guard\, prompting genuine laughter in moments of lightness. At their best—such as on their upcoming album—there’s a real warmth spread across their distinctive take on folk storytelling. Tracks like Wheel of Fortune have an easy rapport; it’s like meeting an old friend\, full of teasing and smiles. \nThere are nods to darker moments too: longing and melancholy\, hard-learned lessons. Balancing the heavy with the light—and translating it into a foot-tapping\, infectious modern folk sound—is what DUG do best. They don’t need to play at comedy; their music is naturally playful and honest\, inviting you along on their musical journey. \nDUG’s love for the musicians who inspire them never tips into reverence. They are an uncompromisingly modern band. You’ll hear plenty of Irish influence in their music\, but there are no tweed jackets or paddy caps here. Instead\, the band chooses simply to be themselves—organic and unforced. This is part of what gives their work such strong charisma and helps establish DUG as one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary folk. \nIn 2024\, the duo signed with Claddagh Records\, a label where they find themselves in excellent musical company. A subsidiary of Universal Records\, Claddagh has in recent years become a hub for some of the most forward-thinking artists in modern Irish folk\, including Niamh Bury\, Lemoncello\, and ØXN\, to name just a few. \nIt’s no surprise that a group who delight in being a little cheeky while remaining so deeply true to themselves has built a thriving community of fans—both at their live shows and through their often hilarious social media presence. \nOplev DUGs unikke blanding af irsk og amerikansk folk\, når duoen bag de roste singler Big Sundown og Jubilee gæster Musikcaféen.\n\n \nDer er en naturlig magnetisme i DUGs folkemusik. Duoen\, der består af Conor (Lorkin) O’Reilly og Jonny Pickett\, er ved at gøre klar til udgivelsen af deres debutalbum\, efter at de blev dannet i 2023 – men man kan godt tro\, at de har skrevet sammen hele livet. \nDeres musik har rødder i musikalske traditioner fra begge sider af Atlanten. På den ene side ekkoer de de store amerikanske folkemusikere\, og på den anden side kanaliserer de komfortabelt de ældre statsmænd inden for irsk folkemusik. \nDet er ikke tilfældigt. DUG har en fælles musikalsk arv\, da medlemmerne er født i Amerika og Skotland\, inden de kom til Irland. O’Reilly selv tilbragte næsten et årti med at lave og udgive musik i det nordlige New York\, efter at han havde forladt sin hjemby Edinburgh (hans mor er irsk og hans far skotsk)\, inden han flyttede til Irland i 2022 for at starte et nyt musikalsk kapitel. \nOg man kan høre den levede musikalske erfaring i singler som ›Big Sundown‹ og ›Jubilee‹ (nomineret til to Grammy-nomineringer). Resonatorguitar og banjo\, byggestenene i DUG’s arrangementer\, lick og spin\, med indviklede fingerpicking-mønstre\, der hvirvler sammen til en fængslende helhed. Deres musik ånder og vamps i synkronisering. \nDe er også pokkers morsomme. DUGs tekster tager dig på sengen og fremkalder et ægte grin i et øjebliks lethed. Når de er bedst\, som på deres kommende album\, er der en ægte varme spredt ud over deres unikke fortolkning af folkemusikfortællinger. Numre som ›Wheel of Fortune‹ har en let rapport. Det er som at mødes med en gammel ven\, fuld af drillerier og smil. \nDer er også hentydninger til mørkere øjeblikke; længsel og melankoli\, til hårdt lærte lektier. At tage det tunge med det lette og være i stand til at oversætte det til en fodtappende\, smittende moderne folkemusiklyd er det\, DUG gør bedst. De behøver ikke at spille komedie; deres musik er naturligt legende og ærlig og inviterer dig med på deres musikalske rejse. \nDUG’s kærlighed til de musikere\, der har inspireret dem\, går aldrig for langt i retning af ærbødighed. De er et kompromisløst moderne band. Du vil høre masser af irsk indflydelse i deres musik\, men du finder ingen tweedfrakker eller paddy caps her. I stedet vælger bandet at være sig selv – helt naturlige og organiske. Det er en del af det\, der giver gruppens arbejde et så stærkt karisma og er med til at etablere DUG som et af de mest unikke bud på moderne folkemusik. \nI 2024 skrev duoen kontrakt med Claddagh Records\, et pladeselskab\, hvor de befinder sig i godt musikalsk selskab. Claddagh Records\, der er et datterselskab af Universal Records\, har de seneste år udviklet sig til en smeltedigel for nogle af de mest fremadstræbende musikere inden for moderne irsk folk\, hvor kunstnere som Niamh Bury\, Lemoncello og ØXN\, for blot at nævne nogle få\, har hjemme. \nDet er ikke overraskende\, at en gruppe\, der nyder at være lidt frække og så inderligt forbliver tro mod sig selv\, har opbygget et blomstrende fællesskab af fans\, både til deres livekoncerter og gennem deres ofte morsomme sociale medier. \nTickets: https://billetto.dk/e/dug-ie-musikcafeen-billetter-1740605?utm_source=organiser&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=copy_link&utm_content=1

SUMMARY:Celtic Utopia Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Celtic Utopia\n\n\nDennis Harvey & Lars Lovén / Sweden & Ireland / 2025 / 90 min \n \n\nWhat does Irish folk music sound like in 2026? There are as many answers to that question as there are singers in the countless pubs where the genre is still kept alive throughout Ireland today. \n\nEven after 100 years of independence from England\, the colonial era still haunts the streets of Ireland\, not least in folk music\, which has been revived among a generation of young people who take pride in their Irish language and nationality. \n‘Celtic Utopia’ unravels modern Irish history and introduces us to a refreshingly broad cast of characters\, including pierced punks\, rappers\, and ravers\, who come together to revive and reinterpret the classic folk music tradition with humor and renewed indignation. Prominent groups such as The Mary Wallopers and Lankum deliver sharp punchlines and even sharper songs\, of which there are fortunately plenty in the film.

Soon they discover connections they never imagined in a haunting game of revelation and reckoning. \nThe drama comes alive under the assured direction of Barry McKenna blending everyday realism with the supernatural. Award-winning Irish writer Fergal O’Byrne once again explores profound themes of choice\, responsibility\, and redemption in a world where truth is as fluid as quicksand. \nBuy tickets here:  billet.to/1596198-osaq-sig

SUMMARY:Almost Irish
DESCRIPTION:Almost Irish is a young folk band from Denmark with experience\, joy of playing\, and a very special musical upbringing. The four members of the band have lived through that upbringing together—because\, having the same mother and father\, they are brothers. The soundtrack to the boys’ childhood played from their father’s record player\, where countless Irish\, Scottish\, and Danish bands and folk singers performed songs that were hard to forget. \nWhen the brothers reached school age\, they each\, one by one\, enrolled in the local music school and began exploring different instruments. In 2002\, they met Derry-born folk musician Denis McLaughlin\, who truly introduced them to the world of Irish folk music\, taught them to play the familiar songs from their childhood\, and thus planted the seed that would grow into what is now Almost Irish. Since then\, the boys have toured extensively across Denmark\, with small detours to Norway\, Germany\, Northern Ireland\, and Scotland. They have released five CDs—or six\, if you count their very first\, now sold-out CD\, produced in a limited run of 15 copies. They’ve worked their way onto stages across the country and have gradually established a recognized and well-known name in the world of folk music. \nAlmost Irish has a deep understanding of traditional Irish and Scottish folk music and the advantage of knowing each other both as musicians and as brothers. Together\, they bring a unique energy and joy of playing to the stage\, and their broad repertoire of traditional songs and melodies reflects interpretation\, creativity\, innovation\, and respect for tradition. Almost Irish are talented musicians—and not least\, storytellers—and have therefore become a respected representative of the folk music tradition. \n\n\nAlmost Irish er et ungt folkband fra Danmark med erfaring\, spilleglæde og en helt særlig musikalsk opvækst. Den har bandets 4 medlemmer nemlig gennemlevet i fællesskab\, da de – som følge af at have samme mor og far – er brødre.\nSoundtracket til drengenes barndom lød ud fra deres fars pladespiller\, hvor utallige irske\, skotske og danske bands og folkesangere sang sange\, som var svære at glemme igen. Da brødrene nåede skolealderen\, kom de – en efter en – i den lokale musikskole og fik prøvet kræfter med forskellige instrumenter. I 2002 mødte de den Derry-fødte folkemusiker\, Denis McLaughlin\, som for alvor introducerede brødrene til en verden af irsk folkemusik\, lærte dem at spille de velkendte sange fra barndommen og såede således kernen til det\, der i dag er Almost Irish. Siden da har drengene spillet landet tyndt med små afstikkere til Norge\, Tyskland\, Nordirland og Skotland. De har udgivet 5 cd’er\, eller 6\, hvis man tæller den første – og i øvrigt udsolgte – cd i et oplag på 15 eksemplarer med. De har spillet sig frem på landets scener og har efterhånden skabt sig et anerkendt og velkendt navn i folkemusikkens univers.\nAlmost Irish har en dyb forståelse for den traditionelle irske og skotske folkemusik og har den fordel at kende hinanden både som musikere og som brødre. Til sammen har de en unik energi og spilleglæde på scenen\, og deres brede repertoire af traditionelle sange og melodier udtrykker fortolkning\, kreativitet\, fornyelse og respekt for traditionen.\nAlmost Irish er dygtige musikere – og ikke mindst fortællere – og er derfor blevet en respekteret repræsentant for folkemusikken.

SUMMARY:Cornamusa DK - World of Pipe Rock and Irish Dance
DESCRIPTION:Cornamusa – World of Pipe Rock and Irish Dance leverer et spektakulært show\, hvor rockede sækkepiber\, irsk dans i verdensklasse og dramatisk historiefortælling smelter sammen i en sansemættet oplevelse.\nPublikum føres ind i en fængslende fortælling om frihed og kampen om den engelske krone under 1700-tallets jakobitteroprør – alt iscenesat i et imponerende show fyldt med dansere fra den internationale elite (bl.a.

Jakobitterne – overbeviste katolikker og tilhængere af Stuart-slægten – kæmpede imod den nye protestantiske magt.Her møder vi Isla\, født uden tale\, men med en dansende styrke\, der udtrykker mere end ord.

But in Scotland and Ireland\, opposition grew. The Jacobites – devout Catholics and supporters of the Stuart line – fought against the new Protestant power. \nHere we meet Isla\, born without speech but with a dancing strength that speaks louder than words. Together with Finn\, the leader of the Jacobites\, she becomes the focal point of a struggle for faith\, freedom\, and the future of her people. \nBuy tickets here
