Willow Parlo (DE)

Indie Dream Pop

Like the soundtrack to a summer that must never end, the dreamy indie dreamy indie romances by Willow Parlo wash over the life of the soul. No matter how hopeless the everyday melancholy may seem - the Hamburg-based band pushes the grey clouds aside and lets light into the soul. In a symbiosis of alternative indie pop, two-dimensional and dreamy soundscapes, echoes of coming-of-age and American rock music, Willow Parlo tells of farewells and new beginnings. of goodbyes and new beginnings, breaks up and breaks out, leaving a lasting impression. At the same time, the band retains its hopeful vibe. This flows in warm waves with melodious harmonies, carrying and approachable vocals. The burden of postmodern life disappears in their sound, but it always remains certain that after every descent will be followed by the next ascent to the summit.

Crème Solaire (CH)

Electro Punk

Crème solaire : electro-punk with explosive effects.
Crème Solaire was born out of the first Gustav project. This springboard and the development of various artistic projects made it possible to create numerous contacts in the Swiss pop music ecosystem. This led the group to develop the project in the four national languages and to perform in every region of the country, on a wide variety of stages (from Paléo to Muzzano). Since 2018, the duo has been performing in Switzerland and Europe, still sweating with hopes to shout out. A performance and musical project thirsting for freedom, anger, love and revolt. In a strange and intense universe, this group, made up of Rebecca Solari and Pascal Stoll, compose, share, play and replay new faces and new stories.

Protogonos (FR)

Metal core

Formed in Reims in 2016, Protogonos draw their influences from the essence of the Metalcore scene such as As I lay dying, Miss May I, Bring me the Horizon and The Devil Wears Prada. The band's sound is energetic, powerful and progressive, while their repertoire is richly melodic, with brutal vocals borrowed from the Death genre alternating with clean vocals to enhance the melodic contrast.

Them Lights (LUX)

Soul Rnb Electronica

Enter the kaleidoscopic mind of Sacha Hanlet, singer, songwriter and record-producer based in Luxembourg. While some listeners know the musician as drummer from the instrumental math-rock outfit MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, known for their kinetic display of energy and extensive touring across Europe, Asia and North America, THEM LIGHTS transcends the boundaries of live instrumentation oscillating between Blade Runner-arpeggios, dark electronica and a mainstream sensibility. With his confident production style, Sacha Hanlet excels at building vibe and atmosphere always highlighting the range of his soulful voice. The visual aspect of this project speaks to Sacha Hanlet’s interest in exploring different creative spaces. Building on his expertise as a lighting designer, this bold aesthetic channels the haunted reveries of the 80’s – a pop cultural period that opens up dream landscapes and unconscious visions. Taking cues from the spectral RnB of The Weeknd, the rapture of Thriller-period MJ and synthesizing them with the trailblazing works of contemporary hip hop. Them Lights is a mysterious pop enigma in it’s own right.

Chevalier Suprise (BE)

Boogie Punk

Chevalier surprise is a boogie punk rock band with a unionist phrasing, born on the initiative of Rémi Rotsaert (Dalton Télégramme, Balimurphy, Ginger Bamboo). The group was formed in December 2017 while Rémi Rotsaert was running the Zone-Art music workshop. With him, the artists from the association and musician Jérémy Alonzi (The Experimental Tropic Blues Band, Ginger Bamboo) will create the group. In 2020, as a collateral effect of the coronavirus, Rémi Rotsaert changed direction and left the group he had created, leaving the reins to Jérémy Alonzi, who would be joined in December 2021 by David D'Inverno (The Experimental Tropic Blues Band) on drums. Since then, Chevalier Surprise has been honing his explosive guitar cocktail mixed with raw poetry reminiscent of The Cramps, B52's and Pierre Rapsat!
