The Father, The Son And The Holy Simon

In the plan of the Almighty, He created a Father, a Son and a Holy Simon. Their divine mission was to crack the hardest nut in the only way it could be cracked: as a loud power trio, where roots and fingerpointing fast-forward rock & roll is mixed with ooze and poison. The Father, The Son And The Holy Simon are the ultimate proof that trinities aren’t only biblical. I mean, come on, nothing in this world rocks more than a decent power trio!

Camp Rebecca

Camp Rebecca consists of three musicians who put down nineties guitar bands like Faith No More and Soundgarden as their main influences. With a contemporary approach, they end up with a sonically fresh result. Take for instance ‘Keeping What We Got’, a rocking track that builds on a grooving bass and a thumbing drum, and has rhythmic guitar licks and a powerful vocal on top. Impossible to sit still to!

Lous

Lous, sometimes referred to as Lous And The Yakuza, is a jong, extremely talented singer with roots in Rwanda and the Congo. Now, she’s completely at home in Brussels and Louvain. It’s at the latter that she was recently made artist in residence of music club Het Depot. On the four EPs she’s already released, Lous displays her beautiful, warm voice and her longing for sonic experimentations. The results balance between classic pop along the lines of Lianne La Havas or Laura Mvula, and electronic acts like FKA Twigs and Kelela. But more than anything else, Lous is a talent in her own right, on an interesting, musical journey.
