Gorg & Benzol
If you're at a concert and the music is not only comprehensible but even enjoyable and you're having a great time, chances are we aren't the band that's playing. We are a funk-fusion power trio from the post-communist side of Europe and our sound is usually pretty weird. Some of our songs are utterly disgusting, but we have beautiful love songs as well. The point is to make our audience feel weird and question everything. Listen to our music and join us on this gastrointestinal rollercoaster! We never know where we're going, but we always get there eventually. At least.
Minko (NL)
The Dutch band Minko is from a small town called Dordrecht.
Brothers Dusty & Darryl Ciggaar and their close friend Nick Croes have known each other for almost twenty years.
There’s a certain chemistry between them that's hard to put into words.
From an early age, under the wings of their fathers and uncles, they learned how to play. They paved the way for them in a time when sparkling ice tea was the favorite beverage.. Obviously that changed.
Even though they stayed close friends, they went their separate ways.
After a long period of playing with other musicians, on a starry night in Bali, they looked at each other and said: shouldn’t we be playing our own music?
That set the tone for the years to come. It marked the dawn of a new era where the band worked on new music.
Not so long ago they teamed up with their buddy Tammo Deuling and the band was complete.
Minko found their backbone and took off!
