    Bands:

    Tumors
    In the shadows of unforeseen fate, Tumors has drawn a COVID test that seals their fate. Though they will not grace the stage this night, they warmly urge you to embrace the light and attend, for the music still calls, echoing through the halls.

    Music journalists call Tumors a punk rock band, probably because their first single was called "Punk Ain't Dead" (Panka nav miris). Tumors says: "We just play the way we want! If the world wants to call our music punk rock, there's nothing else to say than if it's punk rock, it's punk rock with a Tumors feel."

    Tumors released its first album, "Ideoti", in 2007 under the wing of Raibais taurenis. The album was included in Uldis Rudaks' 100 best albums and the band itself is included in Rudaks' book "Rokupācija".


    Raivo Mihailovs
    Raivo Mihailovs will perform electroacoustic songs, sharing personal stories and reflections on life. The music is based on uplifting rhythms that contrast with melancholic lyrics. The atmospheric mood of the performance is light and airy.

    OMIROS
    OMIROS, it's not just a word it's a feeling, the pulsating sounds and minimal rhythms create another space in the room. OMIROS music is a synthesis of high speed with deep atmosphere.

    Trauksme
    "Trauksme" is an electronic music project started in 2014. Known for its saturated mix of industrial, noisy and experimental genres. "Trauksme" performs their work live with various machines and synthesizers.

    Neviens
    Neviens is Valda Skareviča atmospheric-electronic music project, where guitar music meets broken rhythms, rumbling synthesizer tones, and poignant, unstable melodies that are deliberately degraded to the point where only noise remains.

    Combining musical sketches created since 2015, guitar playing is enhanced with the sound processing capabilities offered by music software. The concert program is designed to leave space for free improvisation, enriching the soundscapes with acoustic musical instruments.
