*etnika is reurning to Gozo next month, for a live open-air concert on St Michael’s Bastions within the Citadel, on Tuesday, the 7th of September starting at 8.30pm.

The band has been creating awareness and pride in the local music and performing arts traditions, whilst helping inspire a cultural change by creating original crossover projects, combining other musical genres as well as similar roots music traditions from the Mediterranean basin.

It explained that the latest repertoire features a more introspective look into Malta’s rapidly changing identity, mining for gems of collective and individual expression based on some aspect of the traditional Maltese music, whether it may be lyrics from the 1930´s recordings, a traditional ghana song, folk rhymes or a popular tune, re-imagined and arranged in a semi-acoustic format.

The evening concert is a free of charge but requires prior booking as seating is limited to 200. Please contact gozoculturalevents@gov.mt or 2210 0152 to book seats.

The event is organised with the help of the Cultural Heritage Directorate and the Ministry for Gozo.
