This free, warm up concert is ‪on June 6th at 20:00 CEST on Facebook and YouTube.”

1st Anniversary of Hadestown on Broadway

/

Anniversary to Anais Mitchell and her show Hadestown which opened on Broadway a year ago today! This isn’t quite how we imagined we would be celebrating, but we’re raising a cup to the incredible times so far, and looking forward to more to come 🥂 "1 yr ago, opening night of Hadestown w the force of nature that is @rachel.chavkin . We joined our blindingly beautiful cast for the curtain call + someone put a big bouquet of flowers in my arms, I was too dazed to know what to do with them, so I awkwardly put them down somewhere like on the ground or maybe the set table. I’m so grateful for the whole extended family that made this dream come true. Wish we could all be in a room together celebrating... but till then... keep the faith. Mad love " - Anais Mitchell

HUNDREDS feature on NDR Culture TV for 10th Anniversary Show

Check out this fantastic TV feature of HUNDREDS' 10th anniversary show at Elbphilharmonie Hamburg. Thanks to Germany's national TV station NDR Kultur for this uplifting mini doc on Hundreds and this special show. It feels pretty surreal in these days that only 8 weeks ago they played in front of over 2000 people here, everybody in one room and less that 1.5m apart...
