BandaBordel is a Gypsy Punk Super Group, consisting of members of BandàpArt & QUEL BORDEL!

Barbie Sailers is an alternative rock band from Switzerland born in 2011. The project started very fast and they auto produced two “Demo” (2011 e 2012) with 16 original tracks. At the end of 2013 they published the first full length album called “Already in Paradise” with the best tracks of the demos and 6 brand new tracks. Thanks to their work they were able to play more than 100 shows across Europe and supported several acts like Papa Roach, Yellowcard, The Subways & many more. They've also done the European Vans Warped Tour in Bern and they've reached the second price at the RedBull Tourbus. On 2016 they released a new auto produced EP with a new Music Video for the single “Free Fall” and they toured with Our Last Night as main support band for 7 European shows. After this exciting tour, the band decided to stay in their studio and focus 100% writing new stuff. They now have a lot of new tracks ready to be released and this fall they are going to tour again with Our Last Night, Blessthefall & The Color Morale.

These five musicians have sold their souls to rock. They all share the same love for music, which gives them a near perfect on-stage chemistry. No wonder that Barking Bruce can call themselves the best cover band of the Benelux, after winning the Clash Of The Coverbands.

The reward: a full schedule and their very own single, Lena. The band was founded from the former members of Fast Forward and 10tation, two groups from the North of the province of Antwerp, that have build quite a name for themselves for their live performances. They’ve passed on this tradition with Barking Bruce. Grunge, punkrock, hiphop, it’s all well represented in their repertoire, thanks to a solid drummer (Kris Van Meel), a nimble bass player (Guy Roelands), two dynamic guitarists (Hans Doomen and Paul de Kooning), and last, but certainly not least, a extraordinary vocalist with a distinct and exceptional voice (Jef Broes). Classics and hits are part of the setlist, but the band’s known for their interpretations of hidden gems as well.

Bec Lavelle, the iconic voice behind the soulful songs of McLeod's Daughters, will take you on a journey.

Begz is existsing for almost 8 years. The past years they have been able to perform on lots of Dutch stages as an allround coverband. But there is an end to everything. Within a short amount of time a couple of people left Begz and that was the moment to change directions. The remaining members had a desire to focus more on Funk- and Soulmusic. And with the neccesary replacements, this desire will be pursued.

After 7 years of Rock and Pop, the band really found the Funk and Soul. With new members and new repertoire the band started a comeback-tour, to celebrate the new Begz. We hope to see you!

West Australia's Ben Catley has taken his music all around Australia, UK, New Zealand and Singapore over the last year… appearing on international festival lineups among the likes of Gorillaz, Ben Harper, London Grammar and many more.

With frantic guitar playing, grooving footstomping and a huge energy, Ben captivates festival crowds like few other solo acts.

Alongside numerous single releases throughout the year, 2019 sees Ben touring New Zealand for the second time, starting at NZ Spirit Festival with Xavier Rudd, then performing across the globe.

Australia's Ben Catley comes to Amsterdam during his 2019 Europe tour - appearing on festival lineups among the likes of Skunk Anansie, Ocean Colour Scene, Pete Doherty and Ash - before playing The Waterhole on Sept 9th.

Recently touring all across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Réunion Island and The Philippines, Ben captivates crowds like few other solo acts - with a huge guitar sound, blistering playing, powerful vocals and an infectious stage energy.

Working tirelessly between tours to put out multiple releases throughout 2019, Ben has new music available and on its way on all digital platforms.

"Ben Catley stormed the NZ Spirit Festival main stage with a jaw dropping display of guitar wizardry & full power vocals" - NZ Spirit Festival (NZ)

"One of the most lively solo acts we've ever seen… such energy!" - Lindisfarne Festival (UK)

"This a lot of fun. You just can't stop yourself listening to this!" - TripleJ (AUS)

One of the great things about the post-genre world that we find ourselves in is that, without the constraints of the old tribal affiliations and the generic rule-books, wonderful new musical experiments are becoming conducted before our very eyes.

One of the most unexpected, and brilliant, pieces of genre gene splicing is happening in the streets, even as we speak. Having learned classical piano at The Conservatory from the age of six, it would seem that Beranger’s musical career was already mapped out.

To find him now delivering his unique Heavy Baroque Pop songs to gathered crowds in the streets says as much about his views on following your dream, as it does about his approach to music.

Built on sleek classical lines, it is the dexterous piano work that is at the heart of the music but with a powerful, percussive playing style and a deep, vibrant voice. Heavier than most Chamber Pop artists, Beranger's unique Baroque Pop makes crowds all over Europe dance to Bach-inspired melodies on steroids.

Beranger's debut EP "The Kissed by the Light EP" hit over 200 000 views on Spotify in just 8 months 2017, and his unreleased track "Country of Mine" is due to feature on a major UK blockbuster in 2018. Currently working on new singles, future releases will feature a full orchestra, venturing deeper into the realms of Chamber pop and Heavy Baroque Pop.

There is this place – an everyone probably has one somewhere – that emits a magical aurora. You don’t exactly know why but you always find your way back to it. It is a place full of secrets and even if you think you know everything, small moments happen which surprise you. And for this there are two possibilities, maybe even more. You curse this place for it’s unbearable attraction. For how it fascinates people and manipulates them. For how they throw away their own lives and become sick. A facade, a lie…hypocritical. Or you fall in love with it and it becomes the love of your life. The best thing that ever happened to you, the best decision you ever made is to stay there because you can be happy and free…like you always wanted. It is some kind of paradise for the spirit and heart. A paradise…or hell?

After founding the band in March 2014 the work of the five musicians Graeme Salt, Robert Meinel, Marcel Behrens, Mathias Wagner and Marvin Jiménez emerged pretty quickly. A fan base grew vastly in the first few weeks which supported the band in what they did. The summertime brought numerous gigs in clubs, bars and festivals. The band released their debut EP ‘All For The Good’ in September 2014 and produced a professional music video to the title track.
The sound of the band is influenced by different genres, such as Indie, Alternative and Post Rock and creates a profound atmosphere which appeals especially in the bands live performances. Playful, tender guitars, profound drums and bass combined with Graeme’s sonorous vocals yield impressive dynamics within the songs.
