Anna von Hausswolff at Thalia Hall

Anna von Hausswolff, the Swedish composer known for her celestial and transcendent soundscapes, brings her unique blend of massive pipe organ and ethereal vocals to Chicago. Her work, often described as both colossal and intimate, explores themes of love, freedom, and autonomy.

For this performance, she presents her sixth album, ICONOCLASTS, a work that marks a new chapter with a warmer, more vibrant sound. Featuring appearances from artists like Ethel Cain and Iggy Pop on the record, the live show promises a journey through blistering tension and euphoric release. Von Hausswolff's use of the pipe organ, combined with saxophone and other instruments, creates a spacious, immersive atmosphere.

The event is co-presented by Thalia Hall and Empty Bottle, two iconic Chicago venues, at Thalia Hall. With its intimate setting, this is a rare opportunity to experience an artist who continually pushes boundaries.
