FOERT (BE)

FOERT is a Ghent-based rock group: intense, intimate, melancholic with a spicy edge. The music you will hear is a cross between stoner, psychedelic, and alternative rock.
Vocalist Paulien, a woman with a devil-may-care attitude, takes you along in her stories and makes you empathize through her vocal delivery. Fierce and intense, but also cutting! By her side stands Timen, lead guitarist and vocalist. He delivers his melodic riffs and blows you away with penetrating solos. Rens, the band's roots, enchants you with his groovy bass tones, and Maxim showcases his technically strong and energetic drumming.
The band draws inspiration from artists such as Queens Of The Stone Age, Gaupa, Fuzz, and Mink Mussel Creek.

Crying Lupus (BE)

Crying Lupus is a 5-piece grunge band from Bruges, renowned for their unique combination of aggressive guitar riffs and melancholic lyrics.
The band is fronted by the angelical voice of lead singer Danaë, which possesses a rare combination of power and vulnerability. Her lyrics often explore struggles of the everyday life, wrapped in a haze of mystery and sorrow.
Assisted by Thomas’ powerful drums, Milan's balanced rhythm guitars, Veselin's smoky basslines and Jonas’ resonant leads, they create music that unites hard-hitting, distorted guitars with a melodic and dreamy sound.
Crying Lupus is ready to blow away any stage and are eager to introduce their music to the world!
