Bio: With a blissful wall of sound or minimalistic, melancholic atmosphere Ghosts on TV has brought beauty and wistfulness to Finnish indie scene - ever since the 16-year old high school friends formed the band back in 2013. Three guitars, vocals, synths and a rhythm section forms the Helsinki based groups diverse sound, which has been described as post-rock, indie or art-rock in media's such as Radio Helsinki, Soundi, Rumba, Inferno and YleX.
Ghosts on TV's first two EPs leaned towards post-punk revival and indie rock. The bands sound grew from there, and their debut album "I Am Not Dead, I Am 55 Today" came out in 2020. It was chosen as the best Nordic album of the year by Nordic Music Review. The record infamously and surprisingly consisted of one 30-minute instrumental song called 'I Am Not Dead", plus a 7-minute soft epilogue called "I Am 55 Today". On the same year Ghosts on TV signed a record deal with Soliti, and after a collab live album with the poet Francis North (ENTROPY, 2022) their sophomore self-titled studio album came out in 2023. It was Radio Helsinki's album of the week, and the shoegaze influenced singles got praise all the way from USA to New Zealand.

Conjuring images of moonlit shores and shadowy alleyways, ghostplay’s music transports listeners to mysterious, cinematic landscapes where tension and tranquility coalesce.
Following the release of their debut EP, “33,” in 2015 under Noise Loves Audio, ghostplay is poised to finally release their first full-length album, ‘Zelpha’, in 2024.

Pizzafacial
Pizzafacial is a pop-punk band from southern Estonia. In 2021 friends from a small town jokingly released their debut single “Tangerine” which by the end of 2022 lead to forming a band called pizzafacial. Pizzafacial is like a friend who drags you out skateboarding on a sunny day, cracks the dumbest jokes just to see you smile and wipes away your tears when you fall. Their music is all about embracing the ups and downs in life while having as much fun as possible, laughing and bluntly opening up about all parts of life in an uplifting, sarcastically funny way. Pizzafacial recently dropped their first music video for their fourth single “Battery Acid”.
