VIVID. a post_rock festival presenterer to band på Vaktbua - I ekte VIVID style med visuals og STOR lyd!
Inngang: 280/230kr. Om ikke utsolgt så fås det billetter i døra som koster 20kr ekstra.
Meadows & io er en kameleon - en identitet i kontinuerlig forandring. En maksimalistisk, støyende og dynamisk gjeng med lidenskap for uttrykk som varer lenger enn din vanlige fire-minutters poplåt. Musikken deres er svært melodisk i kjernen, med ord og harmonier innkapslet i massive synthesizere, sølvskimrende gitarer, suggererende bass og bombastiske trommer.
I 2024 gav Meadows & io “ Above and Below”, 15 år etter debutalbumet Fieldwork!
«A multi-sensory journey that challenges the conventions and elevates their music to an immersive, transcendent experience.»
-It’s Psychedelic Baby Magazine
«Above and Below just keeps on giving with those delicious keyboard leads and atmospheres... This is superb stuff that shouldn’t be overlooked...»
-The Progspace

S A R R A M is the instrumental avantgarde solo project of the Sardinian based Valerio Marras, active since 2017. A crushing but yet graceful composition where heavy ambient, electronica, doomjazz and minimal post-rock blend to invite the listener to an intense sound journey. S A R R A M is actually on tour to promote his fifth record "Pàthei Màthos", out September 1st. for Subsound Records, on vinyl only. The title is taken from Agamemnon’s Aeschylus: Pàthei Màthos is about learning through suffering.
Musically speaking is a deep sound journey sorrounded
by ethereal voices (by Lili Refrain & Dalila Kayros), floating cellos (Tobias Vethake), pulsing soundwaves, crushing and doom-ish layers: an authentic mix of experiences and feelings.
Valerio Marras has released albums for Subsound Records (It), Midira Records (D), Talk About records (Sardinia) playing intensely all over Europe including appearances at LEM in Spain,
Dunk!Festival in Belgium, Moving Noises and Schwarzer Herbst in Germany, Who Needs Lyrics in Slovakia, KME, Signal fest, Paolo Fresu's Insulae Lab, Pinacoteca Nazionale di Sassari etc,
collaborations with MAN museum and Ciusa Musem in Nuoro, Museo Nivola in Orani, MUA in Sinnai, Luca T. Mai (ZU), Lili Refrain, Thisquietarmy, Dalila Kayros, Tobias Vethake, Animamundi, opening concerts for - among the others – Killing Joke, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Russian Circles, Alessandro Cortini (NIN), Fantastic Negrito and many others.
“Pàthei Màthos” won the discographic prize “Mario Cervo” 2024.
Expect a performance poised between ambient music, doomjazz, electronica, spoken words, tape loop and postrock.
“There is a sense of vacuum-esque existence parallel to ours that really gives the album its supernatural emphasis, as even though you are there in flesh to undergo it, your soul flies far away in untold spheres.”
- Everything Is Noise
“A sonic adventure filled with highs and lows that will challenge your very subconscious.”
- The Sleeping Shaman
