Singer-songwriter Mattanja brengt poëzie, storytelling en krachtige maatschappelijke thema's samen in haar akoestische, Nederlandstalige muziek.
Mattanja is a singer-songwriter, writer and word artist. In her acoustic music, she seeks dialogue between big social issues and small happiness. A gentle activist, she seeks to put her finger on social sore spots with beautiful words. With roots in word art, she sees it as her goal to bring more poetry into music. Spoken word and music therefore frequently coincide in her work. She makes a case for themes such as climate and women's emancipation: Urgency is her key word. Mattanja's goal is to make music that dives below the surface, gets under your skin and resonates in your head for a long time.
So are you looking for acoustic music with a social edge? Or are you
looking for a soft, musical setting for an event? Then Mattanja offers what you're looking for. With her unique combination of word art, storytelling and music, she gives every event a golden edge.
In addition to performing with her own music, Mattanja also writes songs on commission for corporate events, parties or cultural evenings. So are you looking for a musical and poetic summary of an event, or would you like to give a loved one something special as a gift? Then this is exactly what you are looking for (starting price €375).
Mattanja regularly performs in theaters and at a variety of venues and events. For example, she has performed at venues including: Oude Luxor Theater Rotterdam (2024), Klein Bellevue , Amsterdam (2025), Mimik Deventer (2025), Theater Zuidplein Rotterdam (2025), Cinetol Amsterdam (2025), De Roode Bioscoop Amsterdam (2026), Theater de Veste Delft (2026) and Theater Cpunt Hoofddorp (2026).
Furthermore, in 2023 she won second place in the Martin Luther King Spoken Word contest and in the spring of 2025, as one of the winners of the Spoken Awards, she toured several Dutch theaters with a word art performance. In 2026, she participated in Mooie Noten Amsterdam. This same spring, her debut single was released: This Is My City, a song that exposes street harassment and seeks to give strength to women and others who do not feel safe on the streets.
