live music with Ananhash and Edna Frau
by Norma Aps
Ananhash represent a fascinating exploration of sound mixing the tangled textures of math rock with the lively rides of funk. Their music, emerging from limitless jam sessions, is focused on improvisation, serving as a unique creative engine. The band performs in a kaleidoscope of broken rhythms, with pulsating basses that infuse energy and syncopated guitars that defy convention. This mix of technique and groove creates an unpredictable and overwhelming musical experience, capable of enveloping the audience in a great journey, where boundaries between line and chaos dissolve into a vibrant and engaging harmony.
Born in Ravenna in 2020, Edna Frau stood out in the post-punk and indie rock scene thanks to their debut album My Ego Is Bigger than Yours, gaining considerable success with the single Wet Plush. Founded by Andrea and Vins, the band expanded including Seppia and Fede, and turning performances into compelling live shows. In 2023, their artistic journey continued with the new EP Fail in everything you can. On 21 March 2025, they released the single See Me, anticipating the album Slow Be Gentle, I’m Virgin, released on 20 June 2025, which promises authentic new wave and post-punk sound.
