eclectic Berlin indie open air celebrates its comeback on June
3rd in the magical garden of ://about
blank near Ostkreuz.
On two outdoor stages eight bands and solo artists will create an inspiring tension between pop vibes and experimental madness, guitar and laptop, party and chill. Summer
is almost here,
the genre doors are wide open and Berlin‘s musical underground is
leading the way.
There
is rousing saxophone/drums trio Brass
Riot fusing jazzy eccentricity with club-worthy energy, and ingenious bass/synths/drums trio Halfsilks flourishing smart post
punk songwriting with a
penchant for girl group harmonies. Mieke
Miami and her band
cruise on soul-y/psychedelic waves
from Brandenburg to “Californio”. Noj serve
a platter
of punchy noise rock. And while
one-man project die
schwimmen gets the bedroom disco going, one-woman project bauSTELLE from Weimar dances the electro lambada.
Chillera come from
Odesa, Ukraine, and oscillate with
their instrumental surf/dub/funk between states
of trippy chilling and relaxed grooving.
The multifaceted
line up is completed by Charlotte
Brandi (formerly
Me and My Drummer), whose recently released second solo album “An
den Alptraum” bewitches with wondrous and sharp-witted art pop
chansons.
The
magic is back, join us in the garden!
