MUSSPELL (Romania)

INGRET (Ukraine)

The Ukrainian artist is very energetic and her music crosses a wide range of styles, from pop to trip hop to indie rock. In normal times, we'd hear her hits live with her band, but her bandmates are deployed in the war in Ukraine. Ingret's concert is supported by Music Export Ukraine, an independent initiative helping Ukrainian artists continue their work even though most have had to flee to different corners of Europe.

OM LA LUNĂ (Romania)

“Om la lună is a cry. Of great love, of fear, of joy, of rediscovery, of sadness, of inadequacy, of giving up, of courage, of gratitude”. The concert at TIFF is part of the national tour to launch “Echilibru”, the third studio album in the band's history.

ZEITGEIST FREEDOM (Germany)

Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange is where improvisation meets dance music. Led by Ziggy Zeitgeist, a well-known jazz drummer, Z*F*E*X is heavily influenced by club music culture, so audiences discover a unique formula of house, broken beat rhythms with a generous dose of 70s-style jazz-funk.

ASTRO GÉNÉRALE & ALONE AT PARTIES (Romania)

In a conversation about the most interesting new bands on the Romanian scene, ASTRO GÉNÉRALE and Alone at Parties are not to be missed. In a nostalgic synth-pop rhythm with punk and indie influences, Astro Generale sing about surreal dreams, nightlife memories and wishes that will never come true. ALONE AT PARTIES has so far penned 2 singles, a live version for "Board Games", and "Another Car", a track that was recorded over numerous creative sessions spanning over more than 2 years. An evening bearing the mark of Cirkular, a production company from Cluj that supports many artists at the beginning of their career.
