With great pleasure, we are welcoming back Yiannis Chaldoupis at Joe’s Garage, this time with Moukliomos Drom. In 2022, Yiannis had visited an event organised by Aman Molli and ended up on the stage with his clarinet. In 2024, Yiannis performed with Nikos Tsop on guitar.
Moukliomos Drom is a band with deep roots in Epirus, Greece. Yiannis performs with Joris van Beek (violin), René Gosse (percussion) and Jan Wollring (accordion).
“The heart of our sound is formed by clarinetist Yiannis Chaldoupis, born and raised in Parakalamos. This village in northwestern Greece, near the Albanian border, is known for its vibrant Roma community. They play a crucial role in the preservation and development of the Epirotika (the unique, local music style of the Pogoni region). Yiannis grew up in this tradition and learned to play the clarinet from his uncle from the age of thirteen – in exchange of cutting wood for the man” https://moukliomos-drom.geomuziek.nl/ […Lees verder]

BANGS is an autonomous theatre and performance festival taking place for the third time October 1-4, 2026. BANGS receives no funding, BANGS raises funds! This year, for Palestine and Lebanon.

20:00 Sesten Sese: A Curated Evening of Shared Voices

This evening brings together three musical practices connected through voice, community, and collective memory. Opening with the intimate songwriting of Anllel Maria and Doğa Ak, followed by the mother–child musical practice of Dilden Dile, and concluding with the collective polyphony of Queer Choir Amsterdam, the programme moves between queer community, Anatolian folk traditions, diasporic memory, couragous worlds and intergenerational exchange. Together, these performances invite audiences to experience singing as a living practice of gathering, listening, and carrying stories forward. Doğa and Allel Doğa Ak and Anllel Maria are a kuir duo of songwriters and singers from Turkey and Ecuador, currently based in the Netherlands. Blending their voices through vulnerable songwriting, they compose in English, Spanish, and Turkish. […Lees verder]

Voku fundraiser for Zaki Mohammed

By: börek - September 13th, 2026  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Thursday September 24, 2026, Voku fundraiser for Zaki Mohammed. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

On Thursday September 24th, QUT will host a donation based dinner at Joe’s Garage. Vegan food will be served 19:00. The donations will go directly to our friend Zaki Mohammed’s to cover his nursing school tuition fee and help bring much needed food and medicine to his family in Nuseirat Camp. Zaki is a Palestinian volunteer aid worker from Beit Lahia. Since the war on Gaza began, he has witnessed and endured suffering in ways nobody should. The indiscriminate killing of his people and family members, as well as the ongoing forced starvation led Zaki to create QUT, a Palestinian Aid Initiative.

Qut قوت directly translating to food, sustenance or nourishment is a project between Zaki Mohammed and a small organizational team based in Amsterdam. QUT has arranged fundraising events in the form of dinners, presentations and performances with the proceeds going to initiatives that benefit Palestinian people living in occupied Gaza. QUT is a is a way to let Zaki give back to his family and local community.

Through donations to his gofundme Zaki has been able to facilitate:
Construction of a well for clean drinking water,
Distribution of food parcels. Medicine and other necessities.
❤️‍ Medical examinations, check-ups, doctor visits and emergency medical services.
We hope you will join us in raising money for Zaki to continue his pursuit of a medical degree at an online University based in Cairo. We see this as a clear progression of his past aid work and are excited to witness his personal development into a more steadfast future! […Lees verder]
