MARY OCHER "WEIMAR" Releaseshow
Solo Piano featuring special guest
Adventurous Berlin artist Mary Ocher returns with a surprising piano record, "Weimar", her most intimate record to date, released the same day as the album's one-off Berlin homecoming show (13.3), followed by dates in the UK and all over Europe.
Written on a classic instrument from the 1870s, marking a departure from experimentation with post-punk, folk, ambient and field recordings.
"Weimar" draws on 20th-century minimalism, chamber-pop, and modern classical. Yet it remains unmistakably Ocher, thoughtful and grounded in emotional depth. The title "Weimar" alludes to the current era, echoing the fall of the Weimar Republic a century ago and the shadow of fascism that rose in its wake.
Following extensive touring across Europe, the UK, Australia, North America and New Zealand, and a catalog celebrated by The Quietus, The Wire, TAZ, Fader, Paste, Libération, and others, Ocher stands at a pivotal moment. As nationalism, censorship, and cultural fragmentation rise the world over, her examinations of identity, fear, and belonging feel absolutely essential.
The show features a special guest, and a panel on individual freedoms and censorship in the past 100 years vs today.
