HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

HÅN, the project of singer-songwriter Giulia Fontana that combines ethereal pop with dark, experimental melodies, plays Rome on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at Monk, at the Indiepanchine event, according to the official concert calendar published by the agency DNA concerti. Monk is at Via Giuseppe Mirri 35 (00159), in the Casal Bertone neighborhood, less than a kilometer from Tiburtina station, served by Metro B and by the FL1, FL2 and FL3 regional trains. The venue's website also lists buses 163, 409 and 545. Times and prices haven't been published yet: the agency's calendar says the information will be available soon, and tickets will be sold on Monk's official website or on the presale circuit authorized by the organizers.

The Rome date comes in the middle of a fall run that stops in Padua, Piacenza, Milan, Turin and Bergamo, and at a time when HÅN is releasing, one season at a time, her first album in Italian.

Tickets and prices

What Indiepanchine is

Indiepanchine is the name of the event that includes HÅN's concert, listed together with Monk in the agency's calendar. The full program of the night, with any other artists, hasn't been published yet.

Who HÅN is: biography

HÅN is the project of Giulia Fontana, which the official presentation describes as a sound and visual container for creating alternative worlds to take refuge in.

Her roots on Lake Garda

Giulia Fontana grew up in a small Italian town near Lake Garda, and started building her singer-songwriter style early. The official presentation calls it unique: personal songwriting that blends ethereal pop with dark, experimental melodies in a nostalgic, dreamy and delicate mix, but with character.

Music and image

In the HÅN project, music and image are essential for building a complete imagery, which the presentation compares almost to a diary: words and images that tell thoughts and experiences through a personal, intimate lens.

Fuori dalla stanza, 2024

In 2024 HÅN released her first EP in Italian, Fuori dalla stanza. The tracks are written by her and produced by okgiorgio and Marco Giudici, with contributions by Fight Pausa, nvcnt and Giacomo Greco. The EP evokes an intimate but real dimension, and deals with loss, growing up and everything in between.

The residency at Casa degli Artisti

In May 2025 HÅN took part in an artist residency at Casa degli Artisti, collaborating with several artists: that's where she wrote her debut album in Italian. The residency marks the move from the EP to a larger project.

An album in four seasons

HÅN's first album in Italian is coming out in chapters, one per season: I Autunno in September 2025, II Inverno in January 2026, III Primavera in the following months.

The choice to release an album in installments, instead of all at once, gives each group of songs time to be heard, and ties the songs to the time of year they come out. For those following the project, each season is an appointment.

I Autunno

The first mini EP, released in September 2025, contains the songs non mi odi per davvero and un cane per te. It's the introduction to the album, and the first chance to hear the new repertoire written during the residency.

II Inverno

The second mini EP came out in January 2026 and contains un animale non sa piangere, with Generic Animal, and segno forma.

III Primavera

Then comes the third chapter, III Primavera, with the song se fossi un verme, featuring Assurditè and Leanò. The Roman numerals and the season names hint at a fourth chapter, but the official presentation doesn't announce it.

The reception

The new project, the presentation explains, was very well received by digital platforms, landing on several playlists, and was picked up by several media outlets, including DLSO and Rockit.

What you hear at a HÅN concert

At a HÅN concert you hear ethereal pop, crossed by dark, experimental melodies: songs in Italian, intimate and dreamy, about loss, growing up and everything in between. The setlist hasn't been published.

Ethereal pop and dark melodies

The words of the official presentation describe a balance: on one side ethereal pop, made of light vocals and suspended atmospheres. On the other, dark, experimental melodies that bring shadows and unease. The result, according to the same presentation, is a nostalgic, dreamy and delicate mix but with character: a definition that live is measured by how the voice holds up and by the arrangements.

The likely repertoire

It's reasonable to expect songs from the three released seasons, from non mi odi per davvero to un animale non sa piangere and se fossi un verme, alongside a few titles from Fuori dalla stanza. It hasn't been announced if the featured guests will be there.

Intimate listening

For music like this, the setting matters. Monk's indoor room, on a December evening, offers the close listening that delicate songs need. If you're used to loud concerts, you'll find a different atmosphere, made of attention and silences.

The visual side

Given the weight of the image in the project, the concert may have particular visual care. The presentation doesn't mention it: if you go to Monk, you'll find out that night.

HÅN's fall tour

HÅN's official concert calendar published by DNA concerti includes six dates between October and December 2026.

The dates

The run starts on October 2 at Blowup in Padua and continues on October 3 at Kult Alterfest in Piacenza, with free entry. On November 15 she's at the Triennale in Milan, for the Voce series. On November 27 at Off Topic in Turin. On the 28th at Ink in Bergamo. On December 3 in Rome, at Monk, for Indiepanchine. The Rome date closes the published calendar.

Rome as the last stop

For an artist who grew up near Lake Garda, Rome is the only date on the calendar in Central and Southern Italy. For the Rome audience it's the chance to hear live a project born far away, but followed here too.

The agency

HÅN is represented by DNA concerti, an agency based in Rome at Via Palestro 91, which publishes the updated calendar of dates and ticket information.

Three listens to prepare for the HÅN concert

To arrive at Monk prepared, three listens are enough, one for each phase of the project.

Fuori dalla stanza, 2024

The first EP in Italian, written by HÅN and produced by okgiorgio and Marco Giudici. It's the starting point: a record about loss and growing up, which the presentation describes as intimate but real.

The song non mi odi per davvero, 2025

The song that opens I Autunno, the first chapter of the new album. Written during the residency at Casa degli Artisti, it shows the direction taken after the EP.

The song un animale non sa piangere, 2026

The II Inverno song with Generic Animal: the first vocal collaboration of the new cycle, and very likely one of the awaited moments of the night, even if the guest's presence hasn't been announced.

A curious fact about HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

The most obvious curiosity is about the calendar. HÅN divided her first album into chapters named after the seasons, I Autunno, II Inverno, III Primavera, and the Rome concert falls in early December, on the edge of winter. If you go to Monk you hear songs born for a specific season almost in the right season: a match between record and calendar that rarely works out so well.

The second curiosity is about the titles, all lowercase in the official presentation: non mi odi per davvero, un cane per te, un animale non sa piangere, segno forma, se fossi un verme. They're phrases more than titles, often addressed to someone, and they confirm the diary idea the presentation attributes to the project. There's also a small bestiary, a dog, an animal, a worm, running through all three seasons.

The third is about the name. HÅN is written with a letter, the Å with the little ring, that doesn't exist in the Italian alphabet. It's a visual choice even before a sonic one, consistent with a project where the image weighs as much as the music: when you see the name written, you understand right away that you're facing a world apart.

Monk, the concert venue

Monk is a cultural club at Via Giuseppe Mirri 35, in the Casal Bertone neighborhood, less than a kilometer from Tiburtina station, active since 2014 and named after jazz pianist Thelonious Sphere Monk.

Two farmhouses and a park

The club occupies two farmhouses, for about 500 square meters in total, and two outdoor areas inside a one-hectare park, at the end of Via Mirri. The official website describes it as a small rural world in a densely populated neighborhood. In winter life moves indoors, to the Teatro room.

History

Between 1995 and around 2007 the site housed La Palma Club, with concerts and festivals of jazz, world music and singer-songwriter music. After seven years of closure, in 2014 the social promotion association C'MON! cleaned it up and restored it, reopening it as Monk.

Barrier-free

Monk states that its spaces are free of architectural barriers and open to all ages: a concrete point if you use a wheelchair or a stroller.

The December lineup

In the days around HÅN's concert, Monk hosts Desire on December 5 and Modena City Ramblers on the 6th. On the 21st come Downtown Boys. The venue's page is the one for Monk.

Something nobody tells you about HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

What people rarely say is that HÅN's Rome concert is, for now, a date announced without details. The agency's calendar lists city, series and venue, but times and prices haven't been published yet, and the night doesn't appear in the program on Monk's website yet. If you're interested, keep an eye on two pages, the artist's page on the DNA concerti website and the venue's program, and buy as soon as sales open.

The second thing rarely mentioned is the audience. A singer-songwriter who built her path between Lake Garda and playlists, with reviews in outlets like Rockit, has an audience of attentive fans in Rome, not casual passersby. At indie music nights in a small room, if you arrive late you risk ending up at the back.

The third is practical: Monk is at the end of a neighborhood street, and to get there from Tiburtina station you walk about 10 minutes between apartment buildings and train tracks. On a winter evening it's better to know the route beforehand, or to walk it with company.

My tip for HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

My first tip is to listen to the three seasons in the days before the concert: I Autunno, II Inverno and III Primavera are short, and together they give a precise idea of where the project is today. Adding Fuori dalla stanza helps you understand where it comes from.

The second is to check times and tickets as soon as they're published, on Monk's website and on the artist's page. For the only date in Central Italy, in a club with an intimate room, don't wait until the night itself.

The third is about where to stand. For ethereal music, made of voice and atmosphere, the best spot is central and not too close to the speakers, where the sound is more balanced. If you want to see the project's visual side up close, get to the front.

The fourth is to arrive without rushing, maybe for dinner: Monk opens the bar and kitchen before concerts, and the venue's park, even in winter, is part of the experience.

How to get to Monk

You reach Monk with Metro B or with the FL1, FL2 and FL3 trains to Tiburtina station, less than a kilometer away, or with buses 163, 409 and 545 listed on the official website.

Metro and train

From Tiburtina station to Via Giuseppe Mirri it's about a 10-minute walk. From Termini, Metro B reaches Tiburtina in a few minutes. For the way back, check the time of the last metro run, especially on a Thursday night.

Bus

Lines 163, 409 and 545 serve the area. The ATAC journey planner helps you choose the best connection and check evening frequencies.

Car and taxi

Casal Bertone is outside the ZTL and on weeknights parking on the nearby streets is possible, even if it may take a few loops. For the way back, a taxi is still the most convenient option if you live far from a direct line. The Roma Capitale radio taxi answers at 060609.

Another well-known fact, yet rarely mentioned

It's well known that new Italian singer-songwriter music today travels mostly through digital platform playlists and specialized media. Less often do people remember how much producers and collaborations count behind the scenes. In HÅN's case the official presentation names names: okgiorgio and Marco Giudici producing Fuori dalla stanza, Fight Pausa, nvcnt and Giacomo Greco as guests, Generic Animal, Assurditè and Leanò in the seasons of the new album. A network of collaborations that tells the story of a scene, more than of a single artist.

The second rarely mentioned fact is about artist residencies. HÅN's debut album in Italian was born during a residency at Casa degli Artisti, in May 2025, working with other musicians: a shared setting, instead of writing alone.

The third is about language. After the first EP in Italian in 2024, the first album is also written in Italian: a choice that, in a project with a Nordic name and an international aesthetic, says a lot about the will to tell personal experiences in her own language.

The right photo to take at HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

The right photo at a HÅN concert is the one that respects the atmosphere: no flash, no lit screen in the middle of a song. The best moment is a slow song, with the lights low, when the artist is alone in the beam of light: a shot from the middle of the room, with a few heads of the crowd in the foreground, tells the story of the night better than any tight close-up.

The second photo is outside, in Monk's park: the farmhouses lit up on a winter evening, with the neighborhood's apartment buildings in the background, are the image of the small rural world in the city that the venue says it is.

During the concert keep your phone low: in an intimate room, with music made of silences, a lit screen is distracting. Three shots are enough, the rest is for listening.

Casal Bertone and the area around Monk

Casal Bertone is a working-class neighborhood in the eastern part of Rome, between the Tiburtina railway, Via Prenestina and Portonaccio.

Verano and San Lorenzo

Past the railway, to the west, are the Verano Cemetery and the basilica of San Lorenzo fuori le Mura. Farther on is the San Lorenzo neighborhood, with its university and nightlife.

After the concert

If you don't want to go home right away, San Lorenzo and Pigneto are the natural after-concert destinations: nearby neighborhoods, a few minutes away by taxi, with places open even on weeknights. A Thursday in December is a good chance to discover them without the weekend crowds, and to end the night calmly over a glass.

Villa Torlonia and Porta Maggiore

To the north, along Via Nomentana, is Villa Torlonia, with the Casina delle Civette. To the south, past the Prenestina, are Porta Maggiore and the ancient aqueducts.

Some important events that happened here in history

Before being Monk, the site on Via Giuseppe Mirri housed, between 1995 and around 2007, La Palma Club, which for over 10 years offered concerts and festivals of jazz, world music and singer-songwriter music. Seven years of closure followed, during which the farmhouses and the park went unused.

In 2014 the social promotion association C'MON! cleaned up and restored the space, and Monk was born: two farmhouses in a one-hectare park, at the end of a street in Casal Bertone, less than a kilometer from Tiburtina station. The name is a tribute to Thelonious Sphere Monk. Since then the club has become one of the reference halls for live music in Rome, with summer concerts in the garden and winter ones in the indoor room, family activities, markets and festivals.

In recent years Monk has developed an accessibility policy, with barrier-free spaces, free entry for accompanied children and vibrating vests for deaf people on some nights. In the 2026 season it has hosted historic groups of rock, jazz, electronic music and comedy. On December 3 HÅN's songwriting joins in, for the Rome stop of her tour.

Who has passed through HÅN, Indiepanchine at Monk, December 3, 2026

Several names from the Italian indie scene have passed through HÅN's music. Producers okgiorgio and Marco Giudici worked on Fuori dalla stanza, with contributions by Fight Pausa, nvcnt and Giacomo Greco. Generic Animal sings on un animale non sa piangere. Assurditè and Leanò appear on se fossi un verme. At Casa degli Artisti, in 2025, HÅN worked with several artists during the residency where she wrote the album. Outlets like DLSO and Rockit have covered the project.

This season, very different names have played or will play Monk's stage: Marlene Kuntz in November, Thylacine, Mark Guiliana, and in December Desire, Modena City Ramblers and Downtown Boys. It's a program that makes the club one of the liveliest places for live music in the city.

On December 3 it's HÅN and Rome's audience for new singer-songwriter music, for the last stop of a run that started in Padua in October and passed through the Triennale in Milan.

How to plan the night at Monk

The night at Monk is planned in three moments: arrival and dinner, the concert, the way back.

Arrival

December 3 is a Thursday. If you're coming from work, you can get to Tiburtina with Metro B and walk to Monk in about 10 minutes, or take one of the buses listed by the venue.

Dinner

Monk's bar and kitchen are open on concert nights: eating there is the most practical option. If you prefer a restaurant, you'll find trattorias and pizzerias in Casal Bertone, or in San Lorenzo and Pigneto, a few minutes away.

The way back

With Tiburtina nearby the way back is easy, but check the time of the last metro run beforehand. Otherwise, a taxi booked at the exit.

Where to eat at Monk and nearby

Monk has its own kitchen: eating at the venue before the concert is the most convenient choice.

The venue's kitchen

The menu published on the website includes burgers, supplì, falafel, parmigiana and other dishes, with vegan and gluten-free options. If you have particular dietary needs, let the staff know.

Nearby

Casal Bertone and Portonaccio have neighborhood trattorias and pizzerias. For a wider choice there are San Lorenzo and Pigneto, a few minutes away by taxi.

Accessibility, children and practical information

Monk states that its spaces are free of architectural barriers and publishes a page dedicated to accessibility, with the rules for children and minors and the services for deaf people.

With children

According to the venue's general rules, children up to 12 get in free if accompanied by an adult with a ticket, one per adult. Check the specific conditions for the night when they're published.

Minors

Minors can attend only if accompanied by a parent or by an adult relative with a written authorization. If you're thinking of sending a teenager with friends, keep this in mind.

Vibrating vests

For some events marked in the program, Monk provides Woojer Vest 3 vibrating vests for deaf people. To find out if the service is planned on December 3, write to info@monkroma.it.

The cold

Between the entrance on Via Mirri and the room you cross the outdoor park: in early December you need a heavy jacket.

Tickets for HÅN: how to buy them without surprises

Tickets for HÅN at Monk aren't on sale yet, or at least the details haven't been published yet: the reference is the tickets section of Monk's official website, along with the artist's page on the DNA concerti website.

The official channel

Monk sells tickets for its concerts from its own website, which links to the authorized presale circuit. It's the only safe channel: tickets resold between private individuals may not be valid at the entrance.

When to buy

Club dates with limited capacity often sell out in the last weeks. My advice is to check the venue's program regularly and buy as soon as sales open, especially if you're coming from outside Rome.

Three concerts in four nights at Monk

Between December 3 and 6, 2026, Monk hosts three very different nights: HÅN on Thursday the 3rd, Desire on Saturday the 5th with an early-start concert, Modena City Ramblers on Sunday the 6th.

Three worlds

HÅN's ethereal songwriting, Desire's nocturnal atmospheres, the long history of Modena City Ramblers: if you're a regular at the venue, you can build yourself a small personal festival over four nights, always in the same room.

A different crowd every night

Each night draws its own crowd, and the venue changes atmosphere accordingly. For HÅN you can expect an attentive, focused audience, used to listening to indie music: a quiet Thursday night, before the busier weekend.

A Thursday in early December

Early December is the heart of the indoor season: at Monk life moves from the park to the indoor room, and concerts become more intimate. For songs that HÅN herself tied to the seasons, a concert on the edge of winter has a special flavor. Thursday has its advantages: the city is less congested than on the weekend, and with Tiburtina nearby the way back stays quick even if you work the next day.
