An evening filled with sonic landscapes and intense musical visions brings together three outstanding names from the contemporary alternative scene. The psychedelic waves of The Dharma Chain intertwine with the melancholic guitar sound of Tomáš Palucha and the transcendent atmosphere of Mancy Sono. Three distinct approaches to sound, united by their fearless push beyond genre boundaries and their ability to draw the audience into their unique musical universe.

The Dharma Chain (DE)

Originally from Byron Bay, Australia, now based in Berlin, The Dharma Chain is a band that defies genre labels, offering a captivating mix of shoegaze, post-punk, and neo-psychedelia, infused with the raw energy of ‘60s garage rock. Their live shows are known for their dynamic nature, with band members switching roles, making every performance a one-of-a-kind experience. Sonically, they balance between the dreamy and the abrasive—ethereal vocals drenched in reverb, guitars that feel both nostalgic and unsettling, all underpinned by industrial undertones. After relocating to Germany, they signed with Anomic Records and released their debut album NOWHERE on June 21, 2024, solidifying their place among the most exciting acts in today’s psych-rock scene.

Tomáš Palucha

Is not just a band—it’s a concept, a soundtrack to imaginary films that every listener can play in their own mind. Their music is a journey, both quiet and thunderous, balancing between post-rock soundscapes, hints of stoner rock, reggae, and elusive no wave elements. Layered guitars blend seamlessly with synthesizers, saxophone, and percussion, creating an organic soundscape unrestricted by genre boundaries. Their sound embraces melancholy but never drowns in sentimentality—it remains raw, cinematic, and deeply emotive. In the fall of 2023, they released their latest album Rauš, continuing their exploration of sonic openness and freedom.

Mancy Sono

Band crafts musical worlds in which you can both lose and find yourself. Their performances are more than just concerts—they are deep emotional experiences bordering on trance. Their fusion of post-rock, ambient, drone, and metal carries a raw intensity yet remains profoundly sensitive, personal, and intimate. Each sound, each melody has a purpose—their music contains no lyrics, yet it tells powerful stories. The audience becomes part of a ritual, a collective yet deeply personal journey. Mancy Sono offers music without compromise, music that serves as both meditation and an explosion of emotions.
