TUE 21 FEB 2023:
DINNER + LIVE BANDS: ANN BLU + LANCE PRIESTER & COEUR
Come by and enjoy a delicious meal, grab some drinks and enjoy the music of Ann Blu and Lance Priester & Coeur.
Enschede got to know Lance Priester though his performance last year at the Booster Festival where he did a stellar performance at Metropool. One year later we are looking forward to seeing a more evolved show with his band Coeur. Lance Priester grew up in France, studied in London for a few years and ended up in Tilburg looking for musicians with a similar intention. He has found it in his band Coeur, French for heart.
ANN BLU
She is a big fan of recycling, which is why Ann Blu’s music has strong references to the past. Her ‘intelligent pop’ holds elements of Steely Dan as well as Amy Winehouse and immerses listeners in a warm bath of guitar and keys grounded by a steady groove. Lyrics can be philosofical as well as ordinary while expressing daily routine from unexpected perspective.

HEAL ROYALE: HYBRID SYMPOSIUM DINNER
The Symposium of The Overkill Heal Royale is an Hybrid Dinner accessible on site and online. You can be a participant (on site guests and online guests) or watch from a distance (via the stream).
The first part is an online cooking show. While the speakers cook a recipe they share their research. You can follow the cooking show online and cook along.
The on-site dinner guests take care of the online guests to create a collective and connecting experience. Linked to each course is a question to which the online guests can respond via Mentimeter. The platform is used as a connection between all participants.
In this symposium we will get inspired by the pleasure of eating and the multiple sensations food can give us to rethink our relation to the digital. We are using dinner rituals to help us discover new ways to behave with our screens and within a digitised reality.
