Revel in the fusion of cultures as melodies intertwine, promising an enchanting night where the vibrant sounds of Latin pop take center stage in Melbourne. Experience the magic of music that transcends boundaries and unites us all.

Paula van Hissenhoven is a Colombian singer and songwriter who blends the sound of North American alternative pop with the honesty of Latin American indie in a sincere, sensitive, and raw proposal where her identity is revealed through songs about love, heartbreak, and artistic endeavors. In addition to her solo project, Paula has been the keyboardist and backing vocalist for the rock band Aterciopelados since 2017.

Pal Mar expertly weaves together a diverse mix of stories and cultural influences, creating a vibrant tapestry of rhythms and genres. Drawing on their Colombian roots, Pal Mar’s original compositions and musical arrangements range from pop to Latin, bossa nova to tropical, showcasing the versatility of their language skills and cultural background.

 

The Retreat Hotel would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which The Retreat now stands, and pay our respects to all elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded and that our venue operates on stolen land.
