Standard-bearers of Folktronica Deliver Poetic Lyrics, Electronics, and Distorted Beats
The folktronica pioneers of Tunng bring a blend of traditional folk and modern electronics, known for their ‘Pagan’ influences. This London-based sextet combines poetic lyrics and natural themes with a mix of distorted, shimmering beats. Their style remains innovative through influences from genres such as folk hymns, experimental synths, and psychedelic pop, creating an idiosyncratic balance between the rustic and the futuristic. Next spring, they’ll celebrate their 20th anniversary with an exclusive show at EKKO, where they will not only revisit their iconic debut album but also present new material.
Support: Dana Gavanski
The Canadian-Serbian Dana Gavanski creates vulnerable, layered pop music in which she plays with emotions and embraces discomfort. Her music explores themes such as alienation and self-exploration, shifting effortlessly between intimate folk and dreamy art-pop. With her new album Late Slap, she gives space to the inner contradictions within herself, resulting in a unique sound full of warm synths and melodies. Dana’s songs are as honest as they are versatile—a mix of strength and fragility that resonates.
