After nine successful years, pia returns to Club ausland for three concert evenings this year. pop im ausland aims to create a space where pop music can showcase itself beyond its conventional forms. It is an open space that does not ignore the fact that we live in politically and socially challenging times. Yet, it invites people to come together, discover new sounds, and share impressions and emotions through music.
Each concert evening in May, September, and November will feature three acts. Kicking off on May 10 are Valery Renay, Wooly Aziz, and YETUNDEY.
Musically, the opening concert promises an exciting mix, ranging from soft post-punk to electronic dreamscapes and captivating hip-hop. Emotional expression is key for all artists involved.
