INSTITUT 016 | concert | NASTASIA Y

Ancient songs. Modern grooves. Kyiv and Toronto heard through the same voice.

Vol 16: Nastasia Y brings together Ukrainian folk, soul, jazz, and electronic textures, drawing equally from ancestral song and contemporary songwriting.

This is the second half of VOLUME 16 of the INSTITUT experiment. Every week, a different hypothesis. Underground at 620 Spadina Ave — around the back, through the lot to the steel doors, down the stairs, past the mechanical room, through the swinging wood laminate door...

Come early for KRYVA KOSA at 5PM and Tamar Ilana × Blancanieves at 7PM. Stick around — Shaunt Raffi closes the night on vintage vinyl at 11PM. But RSVP even though it's PWYC so we know who to expect.
