In RETROGRADE we dive into a landscape that makes no distinction between the human body and the body of the environment.
A community lost in the wilderness is trapped in a vicious cycle of collapse and healing. This constant, absurd cycle of destruction and rebuilding requires a body ready to transform as it collapses, disintegrates, and regenerates.
This ritual of repetition culminates in exhaustion, and eventually, softness, support, and intimacy emerge. During the journey, symbols, gestures, and sounds seem to merge with the space, raising questions about the nature of collectivity and hinting at an unbearable coexistence of pain and hope.

Sveamaus & Julius Vapiano - „Ja Chef, bin dran – Die Tour“

„Yes Chef, I'm on it!“

Do you enjoy going to work? No? No problem, neither do Sveamaus and Julius. The two starving artists read stories from their working life and explain among other things why they are broke, how to best steal from employers, and whether it’s worth getting up every day anew. If you’ve ever played Candy Crush on the work toilet longer than necessary, you shouldn't miss this reading.

The artist Sveamaus lives and works in Cologne. However, the hoped-for success as a visual artist never materialized, which is why she has completely focused on creating memes. Currently, over 100,000 followers on Instagram willingly allow her to step on their toes. In September, “Sveamaus’ Office Countdown” was published by Voland & Quist.

Julius Vapiano is an author and gastronomy critic. Since 2016, he has been running the project “It Tastes Like Ashes,” which sheds light on the Cologne gastro, art, and party scene. His publications “YOUR GASTRO GUIDE,” “Free Critique,” and “HOW TO…Café Life” have been released by Strzelecki Books.

Teleidoscope - Das Jugend-Jazzorchester trifft Antonia Hausmann

Teleidoscope - Das Jugend-Jazzorchester trifft Antonia Hausmann (tb, Leipzig)
Under the title Teleidoscope, the Leipzig trombonist Antonia Hausmann presents with the JJO Sachsen the big band version of her own compositions. In her pieces, Antonia Hausmann encourages a shift in perspective and continuously questions one's own perception. Inspiration for her musical stories comes from encounters, moments, and impressions that the Leipzig native has experienced and collected between Upper Lusatia and Beijing. These compositions leave no space for vanity, instead offering a wide range of ideas that never seem forced or contrived. The source of this is Hausmann's unfiltered approach to emotional storytelling – chamber jazz with pop appeal.

The musical background for her work consists of experiences she has gained as a sought-after sidewoman in various genres. She has performed on stage with pop stars such as Clueso, Joris, or Kat Frankie, enriches the music of singer-songwriter Sarah Lesch, but also feels comfortable in the electronic and indie context (Karl die Große, Wooden Peak & Philipp Rumsch Ensemble). Last but not least, she is a member of renowned jazz formations such as Trio.Diktion (Leipzig Jazz Young Talent Award 2014) and the Volker Heuken Sextet.

The JUGEND-JAZZORCHESTER SACHSEN is a top-notch big band. The ensemble, whose stage lineup comprises no more than 20 musicians, has existed with ever-changing formations since 1993 and has thrilled both regional audiences and jazz lovers in Canada, Greece, India, Hungary, Israel, and wherever their numerous concert tours have taken them. The artistic direction is also in constant flux to provide young musicians aged 18 to 26 with as diverse impulses as possible. Jazz greats such as Ed Partyka (Switzerland/USA), Malte Schiller, Jan Schreiner, Janis Steprans (Canada), Milan Svoboda (Czech Republic), Jürgen Friedrich, Carla Bley (USA), Joe Sullivan (Canada), Rolf von Nordenskjöld, Marko Lackner, Al Porcino, Ansgar Striepens, Emiliano Sampaio (Brazil/Austria), Theresia Philipp, Steffen Schorn, and Štěpánka Balcarová (Czech Republic) have already conducted the band. The overarching motto is always "Think Jazz! Feel Jazz! Be Jazz!"

Jan Philipp Zymny - Quantenheilung durch Stand-Up Comedy

Are you stressed? Do you suffer from at least one or none of the following symptoms: mild discomfort, general dissatisfaction, vague feeling of illness, spontaneous magnetism, or acute laughter deficit? Then maybe your quanta are out of order. Visit "Quantum Healing through Stand-Up Comedy" and get healed!

Jan Philipp Zymny has been practicing as an author and comedian for over 10 years. He graduated from his hypochondriac training with the best grade of 3+ and holds a Master of Science in hypothetical physics. Additionally, he is in direct spiritual contact with the archangel potassium permanganate.

"The best way to deal with the world's problems is solutions." - Jan Philipp Zymny, retail salesman

For a long time, it was believed that laughter is the best medicine. Today, we know that quantum healing is the best medicine. But Jan Philipp Zymny has the courage to ask: "Hey ... why not both?" In his new 100-minute comedy program, the artist from Bochum presents an evening for those who find ordinary comedy too silly, philosophy too strenuous, and reality too boring.

Sing dela Sing - Alle singen – all night long.

All singing – all night long. is the program: From the first moment to the last note, hundreds to thousands of people in the audience sing current pop songs together – from ABBA to Avicii, from Peter Gabriel to Peter Fox, from “7 Seconds” to “7 Years,” from “1999” to “2002.” The lyrics are lovingly prepared via video projection, with two, sometimes three sought-after pop music professionals accompanying the whole experience, and within a few minutes, singing together makes everyone infinitely happy.

Since October 2016, there has been a real rush for this contemporary response to karaoke: Tickets are often hard to come by, and the regular events are sometimes sold out weeks in advance. People want to sing, and at Sing dela Sing, even those who might only sing in the shower or in the car dare to join in.

What started as a spontaneous idea at a birthday party has become an incomparable journey. On this journey, thousands of Sing dela Singers have now sung over 500 songs from international pop history. There have been spontaneous stage visits from guests like Katharina Franck (Rainbirds), Kryptik Joe (Deichkind), Anna Naklab, or “Fettes Brot” - during their visit, there was a gigantic joint Sing dela Sing with 13,000 “Fettes Brot” fans at the Hamburg Barclays Arena. At the beginning of 2020, the first Sing dela Sing Symphonic took place with the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg.

And because the joint events have not been possible for a while, Rundfunk Berlin Brandenburg aired 48 episodes of a regular distant-socializing edition of Sing dela Sing on RBB television and its radio stations during the pandemic, for which it won the Bremen Television Prize 2020.

Patrick Salmen: Yoga gegen Rechts

YOGA GEGEN RECHTS
Welcome to my live retreat "Yoga gegen Rechts". As usual, there will be a solid mix of stand-up comedy and funny short stories. Basically, two hours of super fun! I actually wanted to play the viola and present highbrow world literature, but I don’t want to show off.

Here is an arbitrary press text that the soulless artificial intelligence of ChatGPT spat out: "Patrick Salmen dissects urban self-optimizers in the seemingly contradictory conflict of effective politicization and the quiet longing for escapism. (That sounds smart) 'Yoga gegen Rechts' combines short stories with dry humor, biting dialogues, and razor-sharp observations. With satirical sharpness and a lot of self-irony, Patrick Salmen uncovers the pathological traits of mindfulness-obsessed city neurotics, because no one knows better than the Dortmund comedian that the other person often appears so strange simply because one is looking into a mirror. (This sentence clearly makes no sense!)

Hurry up and bring your inner yoga mat. Afterwards, we’ll have group asanas, psychedelic breathing exercises, and melodic deep house. Kisses, your Patrick Salmen

Irish Spring - Festival of Irish Folk Music

WERK 2 presents:

Irish Spring
Festival of Irish Folk Music

For the Irish Spring Festival 2025, we have once again managed to put together a good mix of programs, as the aim of this festival is to showcase to the audience in this country what is happening in the innovative Irish music scene while also giving space to different styles.

The renowned Northern Irish singer/songwriter duo Fil Campbell & Tom McFarland will kick off the event in 2025. Their songs sometimes offer a slightly "quirky" view of life and often invite the audience to sing along. They bring contemporary and traditional songs and know how to interact skillfully with their audience.

4 Man Job is based in Glasgow and delivers "unadorned" (which they value) traditional Celtic music. Ciaran Ryan (tenor banjo), Dylan Cairns-Hawarth (fiddle), Luc McNally (bouzouki, vocals), and Craig Baxter (bodhrán) are responsible for the sounds. Despite being young, they already have extensive international stage experience and can promise to do a brilliant job.

After so many men on stage, it's time for female musicians to demonstrate their skills to the audience again. And with Cuas, we have a band that impressively brings this talent to the stage. Méabh Ní Bheaglaoich (accordion, vocals), Nicole Ní Dhubhshláine (concertina, flute), Niamh Varian-Barry (violin, viola, vocals), and Kyle Macaulay (guitar, bouzouki), the only man in the band, focus mainly on the diverse music tradition of West Kerry. Exciting polkas and slides, thoughtful new compositions, and traditional songs are at the center when these four virtuosos, who are among the most promising of the "Emerald Isle" (all have an impressive musical background), perform together on stage.

We are also proud to have secured the excellent Lenka Fairy as a dancer. Lenka is from the Czech Republic but has been living in Ireland for years. After her first introduction to Irish step dancing, Lenka quickly developed a love for this unique dance style and a great interest in Irish culture. She began to learn Irish dance and soon participated in international competitions. She eventually won the European championships in Irish dance. Lenka has also competed in the world championships in Irish dance six times and won trophies at countless competitions in Ireland and other European countries.

MASTERS OF REALITY

The mastermind of the band, guitarist, singer, songwriter Chris Goss is primarily known as a producer for Kyuss, Queens Of The Stone Age, Soulwax, Mondo Generator, UNKLE, Stone Temple Pilots, and the “Desert Sessions” - a stoner rock cult album. Just last year, Goss produced the self-titled album “John Garcia & The Band Of Gold” for former Kyuss singer John Garcia. His own band Masters Of Reality is a mystery.
As one of the founders of desert/stoner rock and with a band name that references a Black Sabbath album, they have released 6 studio albums since 1988 but have remained somewhat under the radar.

With the album “Deep In The Hole,” they gained attention with their mix of bluesy stoner rock and great guitar riffs and solos. During the subsequent European tour, Chris Goss and drummer John Leamy were joined by Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age) and Nick Oliveri (Mondo Generator). Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees/Queens of the Stone Age) and Dave Catching (Eagles of Death Metal) were also once part of Masters of Reality, and as a cherry on top, the legendary Cream drummer Ginger Baker recorded an album with the band.

Fans of Kyuss and Queens Of The Stone Age who are curious about the origins of the (desert) rock sound know where to go on April 15.

“The best hard rock band around today. Period.”
LA Weekly

“The band is poised beautifully between guitar thuggery of vintage Black Sabbath and the harmonies of the Beatles.”
San Francisco Chronicle.

Jean-Philippe Kindler & Robinga Schnögelrögel: Schnögel & Kindler

Robinga Schnögelrögel is often referred to as a plant influencer - but that doesn't do him justice. Online, the good man rants in a Berlin dialect, insults insect hotels, or professes his love to various plants. It's not only informative but also outrageously funny.

The same goes for Jean-Philippe Kindler, who has managed to convey the political in the past in a way that is both humorous and touching, and has now found his perfect public nuisance in Robinga Schnögelrögel.

Joya Marleen - "falling in love" Tour 2025

It is a radiance that emanates from Joya Marleen when she stands on stage. Her natural joy for life is contagious, her stunning voice captivating, and her songs promise both catchy international-sounding pop tunes as well as dreamy, emotional lyrics that simply allow a magic moment to happen.
At just 21 years old, Joya Marleen has already scored several hits in her home country, a sold-out club tour, and four Swiss Music Awards. With her debut single "Nightmare," she became the first female solo artist from Switzerland to reach the top of the airplay charts. In Germany, she has already performed at the Reeperbahn Festival, SWR3 New Pop, and the Superbloom in Munich, supporting acts such as Alice Merton, Michael Schulte, and most recently, the Mighty Oaks.
