Some bands don't need an introduction. You feel it from the first note.

On Friday 25 September, Thee Sinseers return to BIRD. Right in the middle of One Love, our celebration of 15 years of BIRD. Fifteen years of nights where soul, jazz, hip-hop and everything in between have brought people together. This show belongs in that story.

Hailing from East Los Angeles, Thee Sinseers play soul the way we love it. Warm, raw and without unnecessary polish. Sweet soul, vintage R&B and lowrider grooves that quietly take over the room and pull everyone into the same rhythm.

With their latest album, Love Stories, the band proves that great soul never goes out of style. Songs about love, heartbreak, hope and everything in between. Honest, timeless and played with conviction.

If you caught their last show at BIRD, you already know. A packed room, people moving closer to the stage, every chorus sung back by the crowd. No rush. No distractions. Just a room full of people sharing the same moment.

That's exactly why this show belongs in our anniversary year. For 15 years, BIRD has been a home for music, food, culture and community in Rotterdam. A place where artists return, strangers become familiar faces and every night has the chance to turn into something unforgettable. Thee Sinseers are back. We'll see you front row.

This concert is made possible in part by Rotterdam Festivals.
