Tiny back-room. Listening-room atmosphere.

The room

A closer look.

Auster Club stands as a bastion for intimate, high-quality live performances in the heart of Berlin. The room is characterized by a 'sanfte Melancholie' (gentle melancholy), providing the perfect backdrop for melodic singer-songwriter sets and indie-pop explorations. It has gained a reputation for hosting exclusive German debuts and specialized curated series like the Small Sessions. While the city's club scene faces ongoing regulatory pressures, this venue remains a dedicated space for genuine musical discovery. Its distinct charm lies in the warmth of its sound and the proximity it offers between the artist and the crowd. For those seeking a night of jazz, folk, or chanson-tinged pop, it is a vital stop in the capital.
