Sada (Echo): Music from Palestine

A portrait of band DAM, three men and a woman dressed casually in black t-shirts and denim and looking into the camera

Music becomes resistance with DAM’s hard-hitting hip-hop anthems, Rola Azar’s soul-stirring folk melodies and Dana Salah’s electrifying fusion of Arabic folklore and global beats.

Experience striking voices of Palestine through this unforgettable journey through sound, heritage, and resilience. 

Rola Azar's artistry not only entertains but also serves as a cultural bridge, connecting audiences to the rich tapestry of Palestinian heritage through her evocative performances.

Dana Salah is a beacon of cultural fusion and musical innovation. Her music is a testament to her journey of self-discovery and empowerment, challenging stereotypes and encouraging others to embrace their authentic selves.

DAM proves that music is not just a form of expression but a weapon against injustice and a testament to Palestinian resilience, strength and identity.

The night will wrap up with a DJ set and a closing soundscape of electronica and dance featuring a very special guest artist that will be announced later on!
