  • Poets Kristiina Ehin and Silver Sepp held an album launch event at Sepp's family farm in Treimani, Estonia.
  • The event, initially intended as a concert, evolved into a theatrical performance titled 'The Pirate Who Searched for Shoes.'
  • The performance included a humorous moment where Sepp searched for his missing shoes before rejoining the stage wearing them.

An album launch for Kristiina Ehin and Silver Sepp's first collaborative work, "Laena mulle tiivad" (Lend Me Your Wings), transformed into an unexpected theatrical event at Sepp's family farm in Treimani, Estonia. The culmination of their album presentations unfolded as a unique performance, aptly nicknamed 'The Pirate Who Searched for Shoes.'

The concert stage was set in the yard of the Lepaõue farm, nestled between a yellow farmhouse and a large oak tree in the seaside village of Treimani. Poet Kristiina Ehin began the concert with her rhymes, but was soon interrupted by Silver Sepp, who walked around in Crocs and asked, "Where are my shoes?"

After being told his shoes were behind a white curtain hung on the shoe rack, Sepp disappeared through a window into the house. He soon reappeared, now wearing brown shoes, adding a playful and improvisational element to the event.
