Alex Cameron to Rule Berlin from Festsaal to Loophole Afterparty for One Night Only

alex-cameron-party

Shameless/Limitless presents: Alex Cameron at Festsaal, before a wild Afterparty DJ set at Loophole. Sydney-native Alex Cameron is a storyteller: crafting up strange personalities based on failing showmen, deadbeat parents, alpha males lurking through bars and demanding worship. He’s squeezing something else out of music—and it sizzles with attitude. On his recent album, “Miami Memory,” … Read more Alex Cameron to Rule Berlin from Festsaal to Loophole Afterparty for One Night Only

SADO-OPERA-Corners-of-Berlin-Wilde-Renate

SADO OPERA share their favourite Corner of Berlin: Salon zur Wilden Renate. “Wilde Renate: Our mother and lover, our passion and our home.” Being unabashed about my love for stage makeup, over-the-top theatrics and Prince, it was clear I’d fall for SADO OPERA as soon as I heard them. In fact, I didn’t even need … Read more SADO OPERA’s Corner of Berlin: Wilde Renate

Vera Sola at Monarch: “What it means to haunt and be haunted.”

Vera-Sola_DamonDuke_neu

Vera Sola’s haunting lyricism and dark nostalgia at Monarch on April 16, 2019. Vera Sola’s recently released “Shades,” which was written, performed, and produced entirely alone, lends itself to drama, evoking the likes of Morricone and Leonard Cohen and Nick Cave. It’s imagistic in nature. Think: long shadows appearing around corners, sharp glances across rooms … Read more Vera Sola at Monarch: “What it means to haunt and be haunted.”
