Paul Plut: Etta

Paul Plut presents his new album "ETTA" as an intense concert evening with a five-piece band and live visuals by analog artist Stefanie Weberhofer. The album is dedicated to his great-aunt, who was born in 1941 as a child with a disability to a family shaped by National Socialism. Her existence was systematically erased—a void that Plut reconstructs through conversations, archival research, and medical records.

Starting from a mysterious childhood drawing, he weaves a six-piece arc between perpetrators, victims, and bystanders. The music addresses the Nazi murders of people deemed 'disposable existences' and questions responsibility for one's own family history. The album is accompanied by an essay film and a podcast by contemporary historian Sabrina Peer. With idiosyncratic, partly self-built instruments, Plut creates an evening that combines personal acts of remembrance with societal reflection.
