Caravan Palace + Wallia

FURTHER AFIELD

Caravan Palace is a global pop phenomenon blending modern electronic production with vintage jazz and swing. Over two decades and five studio albums they have popularized a vibrant electro-swing sound. On this tour they revisit signature tracks and introduce new material, channeling the spirit of 1920s American revues with brass flourishes, jazz guitar and analog synth textures. The performance is choreographed and cinematic, combining exuberant arrangements with a contagious, dance-oriented energy.

Performed by actress Carole Epiney and classical guitarist Carl Alex, this poetic reading traces the night as an intimate, mysterious landscape. Selections from Emily Brontë, Rainer Maria Rilke, Charles Baudelaire, Alphonse de Lamartine and Renée Vivien unfold between spoken word and guitar, alternating melancholy, contemplation and quiet longing. Brief newly written fragments weave the poems into a continuous arc, while the pared-back musical accompaniment envelops the voice in a soft, reflective atmosphere.

The Icelandic quartet ADHD presents their tenth album, ADHD 10, continuing an exploration between jazz, ambient, rock and folk. Simon Frith describes it as “a desolate quietude… Nordic, neither urban jazz nor rural folk.” Their immersive, sensory sound transcends genres, offering an intense concert blending new material with signature pieces. The group—Óskar Guðjónsson (saxophones), Ómar Guðjónsson (guitar, pedal steel, bass), Tómas Jónsson (piano, keyboards) and Magnús Trygvason Eliassen (drums)—creates spacious, contemplative textures that evolve into powerful, lyrical climaxes.

8 – 10 October

A cosmogonic feast staged with the audience at table, the performance devours the world through ritual, poetry and corporeal presence. It examines human voracity, collective memory and the fate of what we ingest, offering a sensorial, intimate and occasionally brutal theatrical journey.
