Meet EDITSELECT, the five-piece indie rock n roll band from South East London.

Building on their reputation acquired from extensive touring across the UK and Europe, EDITSELECT have long since shown they are worth mentioning alongside notable acts they have supported including Catfish & The Bottlemen and played in association with Bombay Bicycle Club and The Maccabees, to name but a few.

Fresh off the release of their second EP All My Gold in 2016, EDITSELECT are back, ready to bring their particular brand of indie-inflected rock n roll to music fans across the world.

Having released their debut EP Lungs in November 2013, EDITSELECT have never looked back. Extensive airplay on XFM, BBC Radio 2, BBC London and BBC Kent and praise from influential DJS John Kennedy and Dermot O’Leary saw the rockers profile raised by shows at prestigious venues like Scala, Brooklyn Bowl and Barfly.

Known for their engaging stage presence, EDITSELECT have played numerous festivals includingEurosonic, Reeperbahn Festival, Brownstock, Guilfest and more.

Edoardo Esposito - stage name Edo Sparks - is an italian artist, singer-songwriter. In 2010
he started sharing covers of successful italian and international songs on the web, becoming
one of the most influential and followed artists on YouTube Italy, with over 4m and 500k

his performances. He has a wide and varied sound that ranges from pop to beat, from brit to
rock, from blues to folk, from the Sixties to the Seventies to the new millennium and he does
that with his great personality and originality, all in an acoustic key.
A personal interpretation of covers, revisited for a live performance, supported by the strings
of the guitar and Edo's liveband create an overwhelming and exciting atmosphere that engages the audience in a spontaneous interaction built up during the show.
A rich performance that goes from legends of soul music such as Nina Simone, to the beat
of Ben E. King, going through the U2 and the Green Day, with grafts of Puff Daddy
and Caparezza and so much more.

His performances on YouTube have been noticed and shared by artists such as Michael
Bublè, No Doubt, Tulisa, Hayley Williams from Paramore, the Placebo, and they were worth
numerous mentions, articles and reviews, the most prestigious of which on the online edition
of the well-known Rolling Stone US magazine.
Form the virtual stage of YouTube on 2015 he switched to the real one of The Voice
of Italy conquering, with the cover of “Hey Ya”, J-Ax who pushed very hard to have him in his
team.

His music and image can be compared to Shawn Mendes and James Arthur. Creating music has
been the biggest part of Efraim’s life the past few years. It all started with poetry writing in his old
childhood room, and today he can proudly call himself as a singer and songwriter. Efraim says:
”I’ve been writing as long as I can remember, but I never realized that I could really write songs
until I started playing the guitar when I was 13 years old.”
“The world we are living in today is quite complex,” professes 20 year old, Efraim Leo. “I want to
move people; make them feel emotions and to help them not feel like they are stuck,” he proclaims.

Einfach Kurt is een singersongwriter die de naam singersongwriter in een totaal ander daglicht plaatst. Of liever gezegd nachtlicht; Einfach Kurt maakt duistere pop die meestal gaat over de zelfkant van het leven. Begeleid door hoekige drums en een zompige contrabas was deze singersongwriter met maar liefst 28 optredens één van de meest geboekte en besproken bands tijdens popronde 2014.

‘Het was alsof Marilyn Manson een ballad opnam onder de eiffeltoren’ (Review 3voor12). Afgelopen herfst (2015) kwam Einfach Kurt met zijn debuutalbum genaamd Moths. Hierop liet hij horen wat hij voor de wereld in petto heeft. En het belooft veel goeds. Tien nachtvlinders, oftewel tien donkere songs met een herkenbaar, maar zeker ook nieuw geluid. Met invloeden van Tom Waits, Bon Iver, maar ook C.W Stoneking is te horen dat Einfach Kurt niet alleen goed naar zijn voorbeelden geluisterd heeft, maar dat hij er ook de nodige eigenheid aan toe heeft durven te voegen. Moths is een gevarieerd, sferisch album dat het verdient om eens goed voor te gaan zitten. En als je dan toch zit, neem dan direct even de moeite om Einfach Kurts’ soms heftige videoclips te bekijken op youtube. Tenminste, als je het aan kunt.

ék is a four-piece rock band from Hungary. They recorded two albums: 'February' came out in 2015, 'Whatever It Takes' came out in 2018.

El Toro is een nieuw project bestaande uit muzikanten uit onze lokale Amsterdamse muziekscene. Met Felipe Castro op Sax, Federico Olivares op Gitaar & Vocals, Gregorio op Bass, en Marco Toro op Drums weet dit team hoe je een publiek moet entertainen. Op de setlijst staat een arsenaal aan pophits van nu én vroeger, maar ook Latin Boogaloo, Funk en alle andere stijlen die je aan het dansen zullen krijgen!

De band is in 1998 in Katwijk zh opgericht als “Lekker belangrijk” later is de naam afkort naar “LB” en op zijn “kattuks” dus eLBee . Onder het motto: “knallen op het podium” is de huidige bezetting alweer sinds 2010 aan de gang.
Afgelopen jaar heeft eLBee wederom niet stilgezeten en heel wat knallende optredens gegeven in jongerencentra, kroegen, feesten en festivals.
eLBee is een band met een repertoire van een super festival als Lowlands, Pinkpop of Werchter ! Alles wat de afgelopen jaren grote hits waren op deze festivals staat op de setlist.
Van stevige (pop)rocknummers en rockklassiekers, van Foo Fighters, Metallica, Rage against the machine tot Franz Ferdinand, Kings of Leon, Kaiser Chiefs, Gaslight Anthem, Neon Trees en vele anderen !

Door het brede repertoire is er voor elke gelegenheid een passende set te maken. Herkenbaarheids troef: Het publiek kent de nummers en dat zorgt voor een optimale sfeer, waar dan ook.

De in 2015 opgerichte coverband Elements is een 5 koppige Alkmaarse formatie. Deze energieke en jonge band speelt de beste hits van nu met aanstekelijke klassiekers van de afgelopen 50 jaar. Een avondje Elements betekent dus feest, waarbij stilstaan onmogelijk is!

Deze "vriendenband" weet van elke gelegenheid een feest te maken. De lol die zij beleven op het podium weten ze over te brengen op het publiek, waarbij tevens op hoog niveau wordt gemusiceerd.
Elements speelt oa de volgende hits: Lion In The Morning Sun, Wonderwall, Song 2, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Wake Me Up, Hound Dog, War, Kiss, Sex On Fire, etc etc
