Speakeasy
Night with
Matu Miranda
Matu brings his new album to life in the sound of his voice, his guitar, and the stories in between, no stage between you and either.
"Apuamá", a Tupi-Guarani word for the thing that has no fixed home.
Also the name of the albumGuys, this is a personal invitation. I have had the honor to guide you through the magic that yoga practices, breath work and meditation promote, and sometimes we have the luxury to enjoy some music too! This is the kind of music that runs in our family, and Matu Miranda's musicianship runs deep. I would love for you to meet him, enjoy his music, and share this unique, intimate opportunity to feel light and profoundly inspired.
Bookstor Café is opening its doors once again to make this closer encounter possible: one guitar, one voice, and a small, quiet space standing in for a stage. It's the format built for an album about impermanence: nothing fixed, nothing between you and it.

Four movements, in one small room.
Matu Miranda: Brazilian singer, songwriter, and his second album.
Matu Miranda returns to Europe for his third tour, presenting songs from his new album alongside reinterpretations of Brazilian classics. APUAMA, “that which has no fixed home”, is his second record, shaped by a life of impermanence and constant movement.
Absence and longing have always been part of his journey: these songs come from the desire to transform pain into movement.
Blending Brazilian musicality, improvisation, and harmonic sophistication, Matu's performances are built around voice and guitar, letting the arrangements breathe and evolve in the moment. Every show celebrates the live encounter, with the chance of a surprise guest along the way.
The shape of the two hours.
Tap a moment to see what it holds. Nothing here is a strict cue sheet: the room and the songs decide the pace.
One room. One guitar. Limited chairs.
Bookstor Café isn't built to hold a crowd, that's the point. One ticket type, one price, and once the chairs are gone, they're gone.
- Entry to the full performance, Sat Sep 26, 20:00 to 22:00
- A seat in the room: Bookstor Café, Noordeinde 39, The Hague
- Songs from APUAMA, reinterpreted Brazilian classics, and whatever else the night brings
Bookstor CaféNoordeinde 39, The Hague
Come sit close. APUAMA doesn't need a stage.
Forty chairs, a bookshop café, and a Brazilian songwriter on his third tour of Europe. That's the whole show.
This is the kind of room Bookstor Café keeps open, warm, unhurried, and full. On September 26th, it's ours.
