With his upcoming album, Frank Poison and the Manufactured Feelings, released by the US label FOUND RECORDINGS, Ari continues to draw from his eclectic musical inspirations and philosophical background, transforming the mundane into an eclectic ecstasy. His previous album, Hiatus Terræ, garnered critical acclaim, earning nominations for the prestigious Kraumur Awards and a shortlist spot for Iceland’s national music awards. A sought-after collaborator, Ari has played guitar with Barcelona-based Pale Moon and London-based artists Ash Walker and Laville. Along with performing and touring in his native Iceland for years playing at all of Iceland largest venues including Iceland Airwaves, Secret Solstice and Harpa Concert Hall Ari has toured internationally and played festivals such as Montreal Jazz Festival (Swiss) and Secret Garden Party (UK).

Victòria Vilalta is a catalan singer-songwriter and producer who has had a long musical and singing formation. Her sound is acoustic and natural, she plays her songs with the guitar and the piano and releases self-written and self-produced original music. She understands music as emotion and aims to have a positive effect on the listeners with her work.

Born in the beautiful city of Mumbai, the now London-based artist Ansh Mehta sings about longing, learning and that one time he checked his ex’s Instagram. Seeking a certain melancholy, Ansh writes introspective music with a sense of humour that is at once self-aware and deeply innocent. Ansh is currently performing music from his upcoming project, with a band compromising close collaborators and even closer friends. His live show travels the breadth of sounds that inspire him, from lilting folk melodies over moody guitars to cathartic post-choruses heavy on the jazz. Ansh aims for his gigs to be a space for fearless improvisation, getting in your feels and experiencing absolute joy.
