A fundraising party to celebrate Resistance and raise money for a non-profit: Make the Road New York. LIBERAZIONE is a festival to celebrate Italy's Liberation Day in New York. Every year on April 25, Italy commemorates its liberation from fascism and remembers the importance of the Resistance. This year, we're bringing that spirit to New York City. Eugene Hütz is a Ukrainian-American singer, songwriter, DJ, and actor, best known as the founder and frontman of the gypsy punk band Gogol Bordello. Formed in New York in the late 1990s, the band blends Romani and Slavic folk with punk and electronic textures — a sound Hütz dubbed "transglobal gypsy punk." Across acclaimed albums like Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike and Super Taranta!, and ferocious live shows worldwide, he's built one of modern music's most electrifying acts. SPF 50 crafts hypnotic, atmospheric techno with influences of dub and minimal, blending driving rhythms with textured, psychedelic sound design. Originally from Sweden and now based in Brooklyn, he is a resident of the underground party Bob & Shirley. His upcoming EP Ett Inre Rum (Bliss Point, Sept 2026) continues his focus on immersive, inward-leaning sonic journeys. Nema is a multidisciplinary artist dedicated to connecting the world, to empower our senses through music, sound, movement, and culture - unconstrained by the boundaries of genres and the politics of the industries. OTO grew up between his hometown, Flumeri, and Naples, where his musical taste is rooted in the self-organized squat spaces that defined an entire generation of Italian alternative culture and music. In 2014, he moved to New York, immersing himself in the underground scene as an organizer within the Bob & Shirley collective. Part of the Bob&Shirley crew, G~Style has been digging crates for more than two decades across both sides of the Atlantic and beyond to serve you that fine hi-tech soul on wax. Vittoo, an Italian Creative Director based in Brooklyn, co-founded Salotto NYC, an independent cultural hub that has hosted 60+ events over three years focused on art, design, and music.
