Sparkling folk pop

Songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Iskander Moens loves to be swallowed up by a big, anonymous city. From Zelzate, he has traveled to New York, Berlin, Boston and Florence for extended periods in recent years.

There he immersed himself in the local music scene, played in numerous music bars - where he impressed with his warm tenor voice - and wrote a mountain of sparkling folk-pop songs. The most beautiful songs can be found on his debut EP "Are You Lost Here?", released on [PIAS].

For fans of Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens, James Bay and Tom Odell.

Support: Anna Maehl + Galine

Danish songwriter Anna Maehl blends minimalist pop, folk and DIY production into sublime songs. Her debut single "Youth Song" made it to the final of De Nieuwe Lichting 2023. The announced Elis Floreen can not join her for personal reasons.

Belgian-Dutch singer Galine performs indie pop with a warm and almost enchanting voice. Her sources of inspiration are artists like Stevie Nicks, Florence Welch and Fiona Apple. She released her first EP "Fabulae" in January 2019, followed by her second EP "Lilith" in May 2022. Luminous Dash described her as "a huge talent, the world just doesn't know it yet".

More about Iskander

Iskander Moens bored to Iskander Moon, because in the meantime the singer has a band. The songs show talent: they tell a reduced story and wrap themselves in silence instead of bombast. Music like a blanket to snuggle into. As if a door opens to another universe in which the listener willingly loses himself.

With "Are You Lost Here? Iskander Moon delivers a special calling card. He is not lost at all. On the contrary, everything indicates that the path he has chosen is the right one. Where it will lead him remains an open question. But there is no doubt that the destination is worth the effort.
