This is for you Berlin! 🇩🇪
Just a few days until this very, very special concert takes place 😍
Traditional Bullerengue* singer Darlina Sáenz, cultural bearer from Necoclí (Colombia) shares her musical legacy on European stages for the very first time! Berlin will be the first stop of her european tour ‘Voces del Bullerengue: Darlina Saenz’. At @gruenersalon.berlin she will collaborate with practitioners of Bullerengue in Berlin, Hamburg and London, while DJ and curator @ednamartinezdj will close the evening with an organic, Caribbean-rooted and Afro-diasporic set to make the body sweat 🥵 All proceeds from ticket sales will support Darlina Sáenz on her tour.

*Passed down through generations, Bullerengue is a cultural expression of Afro-Colombian resilience and resistance, brought to life through song, drums and dance.

***
Barrio Sonoro is a new concert series in Berlin exploring global popular music and its deep-rooted connections to history, community, and migration. It was created by an impulse of growing and maintaining a local community of musicians alive and collaborating with new spaces to perform their music and the one of their inspiring ancestors.

LA CURA✨
Founded in 2022, @lacuraberlin is the first Berlin-based ensemble dedicated to Afro-Colombian Caribbean traditional music. With a percussion-based lineup and strong female vocals, they revive the ancestral rhythms of Bullerengue, Fandango, Chalupa, and Tambora—genres born of resistance, celebration, and the African diaspora on Colombia’s Caribbean coast.
