{"product_id":"ciska-ciska_page-of-cups-reversed_2026_disco-bertus-france","title":"Page Of Cups \/ Reversed","description":"Ciska Ciska is the project of Ciska Dhaenens, a Ghent-based singer-songwriter who knows how to elevate a fragile strength through beautiful songs. With subtle guitar and piano, and a golden voice, Dhaenens transports us into her inner world, where she reveals herself to be both vulnerable and fearless. Her first album, \"Page Of Cups (Reversed),\" will be released on September 11. Revealed in spring 2025 with her first single, \"Biotope,\" Ciska Ciska immediately captivated with her blend of indie folk, americana, and alt-country, paying tribute to artists like Julia Jacklin and Adrianne Lenker. \"I wrote 'Biotope' because I realized at one point that there is always beauty, even in the darkest moments of life. It's a great comfort.\" Life has not been easy for young Ciska, and this album closes a chapter marked by doubt and anxiety. \"This album is like a great coming-of-age story, where I finally dare to put myself forward, me and my vulnerability.\" The title, Page Of Cups (Reversed), is inspired by a ritual that Dhaenens and her friends affectionately call \"friend therapy sessions\": tarot cards. By drawing the Reversed Page of Cups, a symbol of her past, everything became clear. This card represents emotional immaturity, creative blockage, and the refusal to listen to one's intuition: everything that had tormented her in recent years. And even though the album marks the end of this period, she knows that this card will always be a part of her. \"The little fragile and vulnerable Ciska still lives in me, she just isn't in charge anymore. Look mom, I made an album!\" Page Of Cups (Reversed) was produced by Pieterjan Coppejans (Sylvie Kreusch), an award-winning producer at the MIA Awards, and mixed by Tobie Speleman (Dressed Like Boys, The Haunted Youth). With Lukja Vanaverbeke, Mathijs Steels, and Lou De Smet, Dhaenens surrounds herself with an excellent band that impresses just as much on stage, especially at prestigious festivals like Best Kept Secret, Left of the Dial, and the Antwerp festival We Are Open. With a series of upcoming concerts in Belgium and abroad, the future looks bright for this artist to watch closely in 2026.","brand":"Ciska Ciska","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57574231015768,"sku":null,"price":20260911.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/ciska-ciska_page-of-cups-reversed_2026_disco-bertus-france","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
