LINE -UP SQUARE 4.1:
DALE WATSON: country, americana
It can get much better than this country lovers and Americana fans. Real deal country outlaw Dale Watson, BR549 singer Chuck Mead and master guitarist Redd Volkaert (including Merle Haggard) together on one stage. Three generations of country/americana from the purest water in a listener-friendly combination.
YOKO SOUND: trip hop, electro
In 2008, the Brussels singer Yoko Sound was able to perform with her debut album 'Not Enemy' is attracting a lot of attention. In the fall of 2008, for example, she provided a handful of supports for the British enfant terrible Tricky. Her mix of trip-hop, folk and electro is reminiscent of Feist, Portishead and Hooverphonic. Her voice color in particular leans towards the latter. She is assisted live by her producer Arker.
MARIKE JAGER: acoustic, pop
Marike won the Grand Prix of the Netherlands in 2003 and is valid from that moment on as a great talent. She cashed in on this with her fantastically discussed debut album The Beauty Around. Since then, her star has been rising. The press writes about her latest album: “Celia Trigger is full, versatile, rusty, sexy and moving.” Leo Blokhuis already recommended her to the Dutch television viewers. When Marike subsequently appears radiant in 'De Wereld Draait Door', Matthijs van Nieuwkerk is full of praise and speaks with some symbolism: “Finally she is here!”
S.W.A.N.: Belgian-Congolese electrosensation
S.W.A.N. is the new project of Think Of One chief David Bovée. This Belgian-Congolese electro sensation is a brand new band from Matongé and the swampiest caravan site of the Brussels underground scene. Steaming grooves, mixed with ice-cold synthesizers and ripping guitars.
