About the event
When filmmakers Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris heard the evocative sound of DeVotchKa, they knew they had found the emotional heartbeat for their film 'Little Miss Sunshine'. Now, two decades later, DeVotchKa celebrates this collaboration with a special 20th anniversary tour, 'A Celebration of the Music of Little Miss Sunshine', at Melkweg.

DeVotchKa's soundtrack and score for the 2006 film became inextricably linked to the story. The bittersweet orchestration of the Hoover family's cross-country journey captured the themes of hope, resilience, and imperfect dreams. The work, featuring songs like 'Til the End of Time' and 'How It Ends', earned DeVotchKa a Grammy nomination for Best Compilation Soundtrack Album, and the film won two Oscars.
