ELSDEER
Elsdeer, the musical project of multi-instrumentalist Denise Dombrowski, is carving a unique space in Berlin’s dynamic music scene. With a sound that seamlessly blends ethereal melodies and heartfelt storytelling, Elsdeer’s music is a deeply evocative exploration of longing, connection, and discovery. Her journey has captivated audiences across the globe, from California to Ireland, Japan, Thailand, and throughout Europe.
The release of her debut album Namara on February 29, 2024, marked a defining moment in her career. Supported by a full-band European tour through Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Luxembourg, the album showcases her ability to create wistful, immersive soundscapes that resonate deeply with listeners.
October 2024 saw Elsdeer taking her music to South Korea, where she performed at a music festival in Gwangju and headlined shows in Seoul. She also brought her evocative live performance to Bangkok, Thailand, further cementing her international presence.
Now, Elsdeer is embarking on the next chapter, recording a new EP that promises to expand on her signature sound and artistic vision. With a growing international audience and a reputation for unforgettable live performances, Elsdeer continues to inspire and connect with listeners around the world.
HARRY FENNELL
Harry Fennell is a talented musician with a strong blues background who is originally from Dublin, Ireland. Fennell’s music, which focuses on modern blues, radiates real passion and captivates audiences with his potent vocals and soul-stirring guitar skills. He stands out in the music world with his distinctive fusion of traditional blues parts with contemporary influences.
ANTONÍ
On her debut album ‘Holding Tight Lightly’, Leipzig-based singer-songwriter ANTONÍ combines mystical, soul-searching melodies with clear acoustic elements and organic electronics. Recorded in 2022/23 at Sen Bakkal Studio in Istanbul, with producer Can Güngör and Norwegian co-arranger Einar Stray, the album is characterized by contrasts: from the quiet forests of Thuringia to the noisy streets of Istanbul. ANTONÍ spent a formative year in Utrecht, in a community of emigrated Turkish artists. There, her connection to the Istanbul music scene deepened and the vision for her album was born.
THE BELGIAN BLUE
Belgian Blue is an Indie-folk project, born of an Irish, Americana crossover and based in Vienna, Austria. The band combines precise lyricism and warm melodies to create a sound which is both contemporary and refreshingly familiar.
