Sabina Lukovic
is a spoken word artist and knows better than anyone how to play the audience with her compelling words. She performed with Mensen Zeggen Dingen in all cities and at all festivals, such as Solar, Gentse Feesten and Lowlands. Sabina is queen punchline. She always knows how to sketch situations in such a way that they get under your skin and your skin can't avoid giving you goosebumps. Her lyrics are about vulnerability, mental health and rising like a phoenix. She is indispensable in the Mensen Zeggen Dingen army, going everywhere with us to blow audiences away. Because she does.
