About this event
Presented by Connect Chords Festival

Vocalist and storyteller Ana Everling and her band craft a sonic bridge between ancestral tradition and avant-garde expression, centering her work on the reclamation of a Romanian cultural heritage within the Republic of Moldova once targeted for systemic erasure.
Her research restores the voices of composers censored for expressing their Romanian identity too overtly, weaving their lost works into original compositions that pulse with modern improvisation and live vocal looping.
She remains a fierce advocate for the Doina – a freeform, deeply soulful genre at risk of vanishing, treating it not as a museum piece, but as a living vessel for contemporary resilience. Through her work, she transforms the echoes of a suppressed past into an immersive experience that serves as both an act of historical justice for the Republic of Moldova and a bold leap into the future of global music.
