FEMI
WITH HER HONEST LYRICS, FEMI DRAWS YOU INTO AN INTIMATE WORLD OF CLASSIC AND MODERN ALTERNATIVE FOLK. INSPIRED BY ARTIST SUCH AS BOB DYLAN, JONI MITCHELL, AND BIG THIEF, SHE TELLS HER STORIES, CREATING A RAW NOSTALGIC LANDSCAPE. IN HER VIVID LYRICS, SHE SHARES HER MOST INTIMATE THOUGHTS, SOMETIMES WRAPPED IN METAPHORS, AND OTHER TIMES AS EXPOSED AS STANDING UNDER FLUORESCENT LIGHTS.
MJH THOMPSON
THE MJH THOMPSON VOLKORKEST IS A GROUP OF BOTH EXPERIENCED AND INEXPERIENCED MUSICIANS. TOGETHER THEY PERFORM THE SONGS OF MJH THOMPSON. THE GROUP HAS A MORE OR LESS FIXED LINEUP, BUT THIS SOMETIMES CHANGES. THE MUSIC RANGES FROM ROCK, COUNTRY AND TECHNO, TO POP AND CLASSICAL, ALWAYS WITH A UNIQUE TWIST.
TZARA THE MACHINE
TZARA THE MACHINE AND CAROLINA GEMMELL BRING AN UNEARTHLY GLITCH SOUND TO LIFE THROUGH COMPLETELY ACOUSTIC MEANS. ADAPTING THE SAMPLED AND ELECTRONICALLY MANIPULATED NATURE OF TZARA THE MACHINE'S MUSIC TO ONLY TWO ACOUSTIC GUTARS THIS DUO IS OF MANY NUANCES. FROM LOUD AND MESSY GUITARS TO VULNERABLE MEDITATIVE MINIMALISTIC SOUNDSCAPES.
