Description

Een smeltkroes aan songwriters  

Wat als je een tros songwriters samen op een podium zet? Een avond vol spontane muzikale magie en kruisbestuiving? Bright Lights Sessions test het uit. 

Elke editie zijn het andere muzikanten, maar steeds in hetzelfde concept. 's Middags komt iedereen samen met elk een paar eigen nummers onder de arm. Samen met de backing band groeien er dan broeierige smeltkroesversies van elk lied. 's Avonds volgt het concert.

Bright Lights Sessions bezorgt een uitlaatklep voor het vele talent dat in de wereld van pop, rock, folk en indie rondloopt, over de bandgrenzen heen. Het is een vrijhaven voor experiment, wederzijdse inspiratie en plezier.

Funny is Black & White - Comedy Show in English | Ghent
18mei
-20:00
Ghent|Music & Concert, Show,...
Join Harshat and Fitz, two experienced comedians from Berlin with very different cultural backgrounds. One, a brooding bad boy having grown up in the hustle and bustle of India. The other, a confused small town country kid from New Zealand trying to adapt to the manic German way of life. Given these two vastly different backgrounds we have a mix of two competing comedic styles; dark, edgy and punchy versus warm, cute and absurd - you guess who is who. Both equally likable and hilarious. We aim to answer the age old question: is funny black and white? Or are there shades of grey? The Comedians: Fitz is a comedian who has performed across New Zealand and Australia to sell out audiences. He has brought his comedy to Europe having moved here in 2023. Fitz's comedic style has been described as warm, punchy and energetic. His shows are jam packed with absurd commentary on life in Europe and wild stories of growing up on a farm in New Zealand. Harshat Grew up between the chaotic concrete jungles and the equally chaotic countryside of India. Currently, he is trying to forget the Bollywood remix tunes but still bring a Desi angle to his comedy in Berlin. He derives his wit from his satirical grandmother and his comedy is based on real life observations and childhood tales. His funny bone was developed as a coping mechanism for his chaotic upbringing and is now used to gain the attention he craves. These two comedians couldn't be more different and have become friends in the most unlikely circumstances. With this show you are really getting it all, guaranteed laughs and very contrasting perspectives. Be ready to be left in stitches saying to yourself "funny really is black and white". Doors at 20:00 || Show starts 20:30
