Performing Saturday 4 April

After captivating festival stages and fashion runways as part of South African queer art collective FAKA, Desire Marea has emerged with a stunning debut solo album ‘Desire’. Having trained at Johannesburg’s prestigious National School of the Arts, Desire Marea spent time as a child actor and then successful copywriter before forming FAKA with like-minded artist Fela Gucci. Released at the start of the year, ‘Desire’ explores themes of loss, displacement and manifestations of love in the modern world. After a standout performance at Rewire 2018 with FAKA, experience Desire Marea’s operatic falsetto and galloping experimental club rhythms in their live Dutch debut at Rewire 2020.
