Attunement:
Attunement is the process of becoming aware of, in harmony with, and responsive to another person's emotional state, creating a deep sense of being seen, understood, and connected. Attunement is often seen in parent-child bonds or therapy, yet also extending to music and broader consciousness, where it builds trust and intimacy through shared resonance and validation rather than just words.
What does attunement look like in your life?
After exploring Mystery with the Mystical Joyride, we attune to these 2 incredible artists joining us this week and orienting to the creative journey around the theme of attunement.
For this end, we have gathered the amazing artists know as Mellisa Ladybug & Nachum
In an experimental “Swanning" experience, that never happend before and will never happen again... 🎶♥️ 🦢
✨ Nachum (PLVNK / Automatic Toys) 🎤
Lead singer of PLVNK and Automatic Toys, Nachum brings cinematic energy, alt-rock vocals, and undeniable presence. This is his first fully improvised appearance with The Residency - and with this trio, you can expect the unexpected.
✨ Melissa Ladybug 🎤
Melissa Ladybug is an indie-psychedelic artist / producer blending Mediterranean magic with jazzy grooves, jungle rhythms, and cinematic sensuality. Her whimsical angelical yet sultry sound evokes a poetic dreamworld where myth, mischief, and melody entwine. Melissa Ladybug is also the producer of the Pole+Jazz show, a live jazz concert that supports pole dance acts (next one happening on Feb 5th) and the Daughters Concert series (a woman led series to support female artists)
✨ ITAI 🎷🎹
Saxophonist and live-electronic artist; founder of The Residency. Blending Middle Eastern roots, jazz improvisation, and groove-forward electronics, he guides face-to-face, one-night-only collaborations into real-time Sound Connections.

📵 The Dance floor is a “No Phone Zone”: we record the sessions and take some snippets so you don’t have to, stay in the moment, and we will lyk where you can find some fun shots later.
💬 You are part of the experience, please dance, scream, sing...
***If you want to add an instrument please coordinate in advance and get the OK
🤫 Let’s keep deep conversations off the dancing areas... It’s not meant to be a “no talking” environment and most people are trying to connect with the music in a non-verbal way. A great place for deeper conversations is the Tea Lounge (:
The Tea Lounge 🫖
As The Tea Lounge becomes an inseparable part of The Residency's cozy season.
With special "tea guest" this time around!!!
Tea Lounge opens at 8pm, please join us for a cup of tea and a hang...
***As some of you might know, our regular server and fam' Marqese, is in the hospital, recovering from spine surgery. We believe that they have been poorly mistreated, and we have put together support efforts on multiple levels. If you have it in you to contribute, or share, anything helps! and THANK YOU!

The Story of The Residency:
From ITAI: "This new season of The Residency is about intimacy and presence. Most weeks, we’ll feature one very special guest artist, sitting across from me as we create the soundtrack for the night from scratch.
A concept I like calling "Swanning": Like two swans facing each other in a moment of deep connection, this allows us to share and respond, creating something raw, alive, and unrepeatable. In this format, the audience surrounds the face-to-face artists which forms a circle that makes everyone part of the experience. Step into the circle (:
The Zula Den:
The Zula Den is a subsidiary of the non-profit Zula Project which is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt charitable organization.
The Zula Den was created to hold space for our facilitators and their guests, our artists and their music, our teachers and their students…
Founded by husband & wife duo Eldad Alfi (@eldadalfi) and Chris Santillan (@chriss2385)

Much Love,
