CONCERT | POETRY | DECOLONOIZE & FRIENDS JAM
DO 27.6, 20.30H ACUD Club (free entry) ACUD CLUB Veteranenstraße 21, 10119 Berlin

Opening the night was MDT & Arielle Cottingham with words full of vulnerability and strength followed by a full band performance by Oyèmi Noize & The Sad Girls bringing you true indie rock that’s dreamy, dark, and sassy at the same time.
We’ll be closing the night with a Decolonoize & friends Jam.

Oyèmi Noize is no stranger to the alternative music scene in Germany. Over a decade of shredding in noisy bands and international touring under her belt, she started a journey of creative and personal self-discovery. Accessing parts of her personality as an artist and a human being, brought some very necessary healing with it. Tipping her toes to test the waters she came through with 2 dancy melancholy singles in 2021 with a mixture of Synth Pop, Acoustic Indie paired with a Hip Hop drumset. In 2023 Oyèmi Noize is honoring her musical roots by releasing an acoustic EP containing 6 songs with the title „I Know It Hurts But Trust Me We Will Be Ok“. On „I Know It Hurts …“ she’s exploring subjects such as heartbreak, empowerment, mental health & community. As shown in her previous work, Oyèmi Noize is not shying away from catchiness and melancholy, this time mixed with a breeze of cheekiness and sass.

MDT’s writings of notions and poetry are deeply rooted in nature and indigenous heritage, reflecting the rich tapestry of an intertwined cultural background and intriguing travels.

Queer Afro-Latine poet, editor, performance artist, and educator Arielle Cottingham toured four continents in five years, giving performances and teaching workshops across North America, Australia, Europe, and Asia. Their work explores the fluidity of intersectional identities, and it has appeared in multiple literary journals both in print and online. Notable performances include Glastonbury, 48H Neukölln, the Alley Theatre, the Museum of Old & New Art (MONA), and the Sydney Opera House, where they won the title of Australian National Poetry Slam Champion in 2016. They are currently based in Berlin, where they regularly host Berlin Spoken Word: currently the longest-running all-language open mic in the city.
