An amazing voice, sassy attitude, powerful songs created with the passion of a twentysomething - these are just few reasons to fall in love with ALMA. She has a package that has gained attention all
over the world, from Sir. Elton John picking her song to his BBC radio show, to Billboard adding her song to their playlists and writing praises about her and Felix Jaehns collabo - Bonfire. With
only one single released to her name, now is the best time to get familiar with this saucy act.

rotation in the Finnish Boradcast company radio channel Ylex, and reclaimed it's spot in their A-playlist. New Deadline is currently working on their second album.

Have You Ever Seen The Jane Fonda Aerobic VHS? Live
23.09.2016 at 22:50 @ Molotov Karatekeller, Nobistor 14, 22767 Hamburg

Have You Ever Seen The Jane Fonda Aerobic VHS? Besides having one of the most memorable names in finnish music history, the band has one of the most interesting concept in finnish music today.
HYESTJFAVHS? for short, draws influences from a wide range of genres, all the way from the 60's soul and girl groups to garage rock and doo-wop, and does so without a guitar player. HYESTJFAVHS? has
been playing live in the biggest festivals in Finland, Ilosaarirock and Flow festival to name a few, but you could also spot them on stage at Roskilde festival during summer. The music is so
spectacular that the band needed to come up with a genre best to describe it; "Flower Garage", and the term absolutely fits. This is a band you can't describe in a text, this is a band you need to
see perform.

in their performances in Helsinki. One of the most interesting things about Phantom is their live set, which includes the handwork of the second half of the band, Tommi Koskinen. He has developed a

View is one of the most promising international newcomer hip-hop acts Finland has seen in a few years. View has only published one EP and in less than a year has
created a hype around his music both nationally as well as internationally. The silky smooth flow and dark ambience guarantee almost religious live experience which has led View to tour around
Finland and perform at major Finnish festivals, Flow Festival and Blockfest, the biggest hip-hop festival in Scandinavia to name a few.

Hexvessel Live
24.09.2016 at 20:00 @ Molotov, Nobistor 14, 22767 Hamburg
Hexvessel, fronted by Mat "Kvohst" McNerney (also known from Grave Pleasures and Beastmilk), prefers to call itself a commune rather than a band. Hexvessel plays psychedelic music in the true meaning of the term. They balance their simple folk tunes with psychedelic drive, reminiscing of classic 1960's bands like Captain Beefheart and The Doors. In its home country, the band has sold out headline tours and been nominated for local Grammy awards twice. They've also toured Europe with bands like Sabbath Assembly and Alcest and played international festivals like Roadburn in Holland and SXSW. Hexvessel's third album was released in January 2016 through the Century Media label.
