S/H x ALICE: Fuensanta MX

Poetry, surrealism and Latin American neo-folk on voice and double bass

Like a clear, luminous crystal, Fuensanta’s music opens up a surreal perspective on the world. The Mexican singer and double bassist moves freely between the intimate, the experimental and the physical, with a poetic and dreamlike approach to Latin American neo-folk. Experience her live in the set design of SORT/HVID’s theatre production BAD MEXICAN DOG this November.

Note: The concert takes place at SORT/HVID.

The ticket sale starts on September 18th at 11 AM

Born in the lush forests of Veracruz, Mexico, Fuensanta has been based in Amsterdam since 2015, where she has established herself as a unique voice on the European experimental scene. In an unconventional interplay between crystalline vocals, double bass and free improvisation, Fuensanta creates a deeply personal take on Latin American folklore that feels at once grounded and otherworldly, tender and alluring. She has moved across genres and art forms with projects including Fuensanta & Ensamble Grande and the collective Perselí, and has collaborated with a wide range of prominent artists, including Louis Cole, Han Bennink, Ben van Gelder and Genevieve Artadi. For this concert, she will perform as a duo.

SORT/HVID x ALICE = friends with benefits
Friends with benefits is a collaboration between the live venue ALICE and SORT/HVID. Over three Fridays, ALICE curates concerts taking place within the set design of SORT/HVID’s production BAD MEXICAN DOG – a surreal, ritualistic charter-flight hellscape based on Jonas Eika’s sci-fi short story of the same name from the award-winning collection Efter Solen. Three international bands are invited to explore the set and interpret it through their own musical and performative practices. The set thus becomes more than a backdrop for the concerts – it becomes an active part of the experience, where music, body, ritual and space intertwine.
