izy
sad sack sailor music
A young fellow, not even twenty-five, an accordion and a concertina (google that).
The world-weariness and punk attitude deep in the heart, izy belts out one song after another. A bit of melancholy, a bit of revolution and a lot of folkpunk combined with beautiful lyrics makes you sway and think at the same time.

Almudena Rubio
political lovefolk
Political songs, love songs… Folk music? I have always thought that many of my songs talk about love. But nothing farther! They are songs of heartbreak, of loss, of tireless struggle to survive a situation that oppresses us and hurts us. They are sad songs with incredible melodies that encourage us to fight and survive

Wyrd Koyote
Anarcountry doomfolk
An unlikely transient transatlantic two-piece, a fury of gutteral harmonic dissonance, drenched in the silence of an endless open road… Then at once it becomes acutely clear, silence does not exist! Like the fusion of wood to steel, this duo of Lili from Sharp Knives, and Riley -formerly from Railyard Ghosts, steeps homebrewed anarcountry folk traditions in a cast iron cauldron of raw punk and metal, and it tastes devine!

Efa Supertramp
riotgrrrl folk
Efa comes armed with an acoustic guitar and a powerful voice. Efa sings in both English and Welsh and has been shouting about the world’s wrongs in one form or another since the age of 15. Whether it’s the DIY attitude of the punk scene, the powerful female voices of Riot Grrrl, the socialist beliefs of many of her fellow Welsh-speakers or the anarchistic spirit of folk music’s nomads – it can all be found in Efa’s music and activities.

Egotherapie
folk punk with a pinch of metal
With a playful versatility EGOTHERAPIE keeps noodling their unique path through dark and gritty, sometimes horrific, sometimes very emo songwriting, often inspired by ancient horror stories, fables and mythical creatures, always displaying a glimmer of hilarious genius no matter how devastating the topic.
Distinctly influenced by various grinding and growling variations of the metal genre, their live shows tend to be a spectacle in itself, their high energy performances tastefully garnished with hellish screams of the bonerattling kind.

Angry Zeta
acoustic blue grass billy from the streets of Argentina
Angry Zeta is an acoustic band from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Combining the instrumentation of a traditional bluegrass band, some sort of attraction for outlaw tales, and a pseudo-punk attitude, they’re impossible to ignore.
Trained by the distracted audiences of the streets of Buenos Aires, Angry Zeta learned early how to get a crowd’s attention – and once they have it you won’t be able to look away. Fast is their tempo of choice, and loud is how they make themselves known. They will be heard. Any room they play will be filled with their iconic bluegrass-country-punk sound.
