Artists:
Sweet Life Society – One of the most outstanding live projects on the European music scene today. Their nine-member show blends the groove of vintage melodies, Caribbean rhythms, American hip-hop, and the energy of British bass music.
Smoove & Turrell – A contemporary British soul-funk project that organically combines Northern Soul traditions, jazz harmonies, disco grooves, and electronic elements. Their live performances deliver an energetic, dance-driven, and socially conscious musical experience.
Kraak & Smaak – Their six-piece live band presents a dynamic show encompassing every aspect of their sound: from disco to house, soul and funk to indie-electronic, all crowned with a powerful rock’n’roll attitude.
Dennis Rollins – Emerging from the traditions of funk, Dennis Rollins stands among the elite trombonists who have redefined the perception of the instrument. From collaborations linked to Maceo Parker and Pee Wee Ellis to Jamiroquai and Courtney Pine, he has proven his mastery across jazz, funk, and groove music. A true chameleon of the jazz world, he now presents “FUNKY-FUNK!” — a six-piece electrified collective exploring deep funk grooves and rich melodies.
Bass Monkeys – A band that fuses the energy of bass music with the powerful sound of a brass ensemble. This 11-member group creates a dynamic and innovative funk-electro hybrid on stage, delivering an upbeat, dance-driven atmosphere. Swingrowers – A pop band born with a vintage soul. With four studio albums and millions of listeners worldwide, their sound blends electronic music, jazz, and retro elements into a unique and accessible style.
