THE FANDANGOE DISCOTECA AND GRIEF RAVES


THE FANDANGOE DISCOTECA
Alternative spaces to explore grief, loss + mental health
The DISCOTECA is on its way to the UK, from Berlin and we invite you to shake out your grief, of all kinds, from bereavement to break ups to political rage to climate angst!
We are bringing this to you in collaboration with the wonderful Fandangoe Kid and Street Sound System following our collaboration in 2023 on The Fandangoe Skip. We noticed that movement, dance and music as well as our first grief raves were really popular and that there is a need for people to have safe spaces to shake out their grief, and also sprinkle a little bit of joy and hope.
GRIEF RAVES

GRIEF RAVE: 25 MARCH 2023
Grief Rave series : first one announced!
Introducing the first Grief Rave as part of the Fandangoe DISCOTECA tour, happening on 25.3 at A Portuguese Love Affair, 326 Hackney Road, E2 7AX from 1-4pm. Come and shake out your grief with us, bring a CD, tape or vinyl and Street Soundsystem will play it. All grief welcome! Family friendly! A trained therapist will be on hand during the entirety of the event. The event is FREE but BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL, here because of limited capacity.

THE FANDANGOE DISCOTECA KICKSTARTER
The Fandangoe DISCOTECA Kickstarter has launched today for 30 short days. The DISCOTECA is on its way to this little island from Berlin and we invite you to shake out your grief, of all kinds, from bereavement to break ups to political rage to climate angst! In collaboration with the epic Loss Project and Street Soundsystem, we are here for it all. But, we just need a little bit of help to complete our production costs. There are some amazing rewards to be found including limited edition Italo Disco vinyl from Rom Boyd Music on sale, plus studio visits, limited edition prints and DISCOTECA private hire!

THE FANDANGOE SKIP 2022
The Fandangoe SKIP tour came to London and NYC; an amazing collaboration which saw us convert a skip into a candy coloured ice cream kiosk which opened up an alternative space to explore grief and loss. The Loss Project curated a programme of talks, activities and workshops providing much needed support for grief and mental health.
Find out more about what we got up to with the 2022 collaboration here.

We've had some great coverage throughout the project, including from BBC, Arch Daily and Architello which you can view below:
The BBC World Service have also confirmed they will be commissioning a documentary of the process with the artist and team.
