VROUW!

VROUW! is five women from different countries and artistic backgrounds, creating and performing together since 2019. They are an ensemble invested in creating experimental improvised music that has a distinct sound. They are proud members of the queer community in the avant-garde music and performance scene in Berlin. Their sound is based on using amplified objects, careful listening, and the strong presence of multiple voices and languages. Some of the objects they play are self-made, including their signature microphone hats. VROUW! released their first album Sonic Replicants in 2022 with Econore Records. Their first vinyl LP VROUW! came out the following year on Soft Noise Acousmatics and supported by Musikfonds e.V.

DRAGONS/DOYLE

Dragons/Doyle is a musical duo between Agnė Auželytė and Stephen Doyle, experimenting with abstract storytelling and the meditative effects of repetition. A cymbal and a loop pedal, a voice and two hands. Sonic waves surround and like the great whale the seas begin to move around you. Relax they are here to help.

Agnė Auželytė – voice, effect pedals

Stephen Doyle – cymbals

GLOW POOLS

There is a focusing of attention that exists within slowness, within the moment when a note hangs in the air and shimmers. Glow Pools are a new and emerging musical entity that begins its work within this frame, letting the intervals exhale, allowing the sounds to gradually unfurl and take their form, channeling lyrics and melodies from somatic memory, domestic poetry and stories passing in the air round.


Tom Paro - bass, vocals,

Jérémie Fakir - drums,

Artem Zaytsev - guitar,

Agnė Auželytė - vocals

Glow Pools are based in Berlin.
