Insiders already know the CINNA Bar is the place to be to discover musical talent and let your hair down!
Harmony
Jade & Naïa, two talented French-Congolese sisters, will be pushing musical boundaries on Friday. In a blend of European and African influences, the sister team has developed a style that weaves Afro-Latin, reggaeton, R&B and trap into a unique and energetic whole. Their style of music is as dynamic as their roots, and their lyrics and beats are infused with feeling and warmth. Jade & Naïa have already built a solid fan base with covers of such artists as French urban pop star Dadju and French-Malinese artist Aya Nakamura, known for her energising rhythms and catchy tracks. But what makes the sisters truly stand out is their chemistry and the harmonious sounds they create together. Their rich voices and pure energy strike a chord with their audience. They convey the message that dreams can come true as long as you keep believing in yourself.
CINNA Bar | Friday 8 November 10 p.m. - midnight
Old School
On Saturday evening a Brussels-based legend will be manning the turntables in that same CINNA Bar. Jay Psar is playing an exclusive old-school DJ set that will take you back to the days of vinyl and cassette tapes. Soulful classics and funky beats will keep your feet moving all through the evening. Jay is a household name on the Brussels music and party scene. His artistic power has made its mark, not just in Belgium but across five continents. Thanks to his long years of experience and one-of-a-kind sound, he knows better than anyone how to get an audience moving. With a reputation for groove beats and creative influences, he is a true trailblazer who has mentored many emerging artists in their early years.
The party starts at 10 p.m. and won’t let up until 2 a.m. This is a wonderful opportunity for those who love retro rhythms and like to surrender to the beats of a DJ with an unadulterated passion and flair.

Tribute to the giants of rock
Before you lose yourself to Jay’s beats, British all-star band Clearwater Creedence Revival will pay tribute to the legendary rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) in our theatre hall The Viage. In the 60s and 70s, CCR stormed the charts with their raw, enthralling rock music. Spearheaded by the characteristic voice of John Fogerty, the group inscribed its name in American rock history in gold letters with seminal tracks like ‘Proud Mary’ and ‘Born on the Bayou’. They created a sound that continues to be celebrated around the world to this day.
Clearwater Creedence Revival consists of a selection of seasoned musicians from legendary bands such as The Hollies and Slack Alice. Their singer is Peter Barton, who fronted The Animals for no less than fifteen years. Together they create a tribute show that brings the music of CCR back to life. From famous hits like ‘Suzy Q’ to the intensity of ‘I Put a Spell on You’, this concert will take you on a journey through the CCR back catalogue, reviving the energy of Woodstock. Fans of classic rock and everyone who wishes to revisit the magic of CCR will be treated to an hour and a half of iconic music that evokes the golden age of American rock.
Theatre The VIAGE | Saturday 9 November | Doors: 7 p.m. | Show: 8 p.m. | Tickets
