K-music Festival: Adg7 Let’s Dance!
This event will take place in EartH Theatre.
ADG7 (Ak Dan Gwang Chil) will open the 2026 K-Music Festival with Let’s Dance!, a thrilling new performance inspired by the title track of their 2025 EP - an explosive celebration of rhythm, groove, and ecstatic live energy.
Fusing Korean traditional music with bold contemporary sounds, the eight-member ensemble transforms shamanic rituals and folk traditions from the Hwanghaedo region of western North Korea into an electrifying stage experience filled with pulsating percussion, soaring flute and zither melodies, deep funk grooves, and irresistible singalong moments. Blending the flair and choreography of K-pop with the raw spirit of folk music, ADG7 delivers a vibrant, high-voltage performance that invites audiences to dance, lose themselves, and surrender to the joy of the moment.
Since their acclaimed international debut at WOMEX and GlobalFEST in 2019, and their appearance at the 2023 Glastonbury Festival, ADG7 has captivated audiences worldwide with their uniquely dynamic performances. As WFMU wrote, “There’s a flowering folk-roots revival in South Korea - but no band combines virtuosity, charisma, and pure energy like Ak Dan Gwang Chil.”
This performance at EartH Hackney marks the explosive opening night of ADG7’s new European tour, launching an electrifying journey across Stockholm, Paris, and Madrid.
