"Ground’s soft and damp. I’m not going anywhere. A chest is shaking. Down the hill people walk their dogs. Should’ve broke my heart, I’m frowning. Three different airplanes at the same time. Smell of Earth cracks in the sky. Everything is unreal. I’m not going everywhere. Staying here with you."  - Astrid Sonne

Caliza (@calizaminnelli) is a singer, songwriter and producer from Madrid who has been forging her own career from singularity and independence for almost a decade. With her debut “Medianoche/Mediodía” (2015) she anticipated the current trend of dark synthpop, while her second album “Mar de cristal” (2018), co-produced in an artistic residence at Matadero Madrid with the British DJ David Harrow, represented an opening of Caliza’s sound towards brighter territories. “El descenso” (2021) addresses the climate crisis and the will to survive in a collapsing world. Through captivating melodies and reflective, sometimes dystopian lyrics, Caliza captures the contrast between desperation and resistance. Caliza’s last release is “Despierta unos instantes de tu oscura noche” (2024), her own original soundtrack for the 1920 silent film The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari, which she is performing live alongside the movie. Caliza has shared the stage with some of her major influences, such as Crash Course in Science, Molly Nilsson or Cate Le Bon.
