“These are songs of nostalgia to a city we have never left, songs about getting lost in streets we know by heart”.

For the first time in Europe, Palestinian composer Faraj Suleiman and his band will perform Better than Berlin, a songs album with lyrics written by Majd Kayyal, composed and sung by Suleiman — melodies and stories of Palestinian strangled dreams in the city of Haifa, musical images of love, frustration, and migration, in the shadow of colonialism and gentrification.

Berlin May 11
