- LIVE ACTS -
① -Brother Sister (from New Zealand)-
electro/ synth pop trio
Electro-pop whiz kids Brother Sister, channel their passion for the sound and style of throwback 80s culture into their uplifting blend of electro-driven synth pop. A band of siblings, Brother Sister are an energetic trio that have shared a womb and now share the stage - featuring Dave Thomson (synth & lead vocals), Taz Thomson (bass and lead vocals) and Ben Thomson (drums). Their sound unapologetically references the rich, nostalgic sounds of 80s cartoons and cinema, but with plenty of surprising flourishes to keep it fresh. Pulsing keyboards, programmed drums, driving bass and dueling melodic hooks are expertly blended to take listeners back to the future. Their live performances are fun, punchy and irresistibly danceable.

②-Kuro Deko-
80s synth, new wave band
Kuro Deko is Jesus Salinas and Elliot Cormack. Two musicians from very different backgrounds. Jesus, originally form Mexico had spent his life traveling the world, living in different countries and writing music while following the scenes of Berlin, London, Mexico City and eventually Tokyo where he met Elliot. Elliot had left the music scene of Brighton, England and moved to Tokyo to start an indie rock band. After catching a live show Jesus asked Elliot if he’d like to sing on the first single, A Ghost in Town. Jesus’s desire to re-explore the sounds of 80’s synth and new wave music led to them to writing another full album together with Jesus exploring the sounds of vintage synthesizers and Elliot writing lyrics and melody. The final songs are a product of many long conversations about relationships, moments in time and places they’ve lived and loved.
