Detailed Information

Huntsville [no no]

Ivar Grydeland – guitars, banjo + other instruments

Tonny Kluften – contrabass + other instruments

Ingar Zach – percussion, tabla machine, sarangi box, shruti box + other instruments

Huntsville had a great impact with their first CD release ‘For the Middle Class’ in Rune

Grammofon but they are even better live! With numerous instruments that include

banjo to Indian beat boxes, they are flirting with long grooves and melodies, combining

them with frequencies and noises!

CRANC [uk uk, gr , gr]

Rhodri Davies – electric harp

Angharad Davies – violin

Íßêïò Âåëéþôçò – cello

They appear rarely and they record even more so… Starting from a ‘zoum plink plonk’

aesthetic around ten years ago, they quickly passed on to extreme calm atmospheres

developing a kind of sound, that although based on acoustic instruments, it often

sounds electronic.

Sachiko M [jp jp]

Already in the scene since 1994. In 1998 Sachiko left ‘plunderphonics plunderphonics’ behind her

once and for all and since then she plays ‘sine waves waves’ in other words her sampler’s

test tones. Her solo recordings are considered already classics in the experimental

field! Although she has appeared in the majority of new music festivals around the

globe, this is her first time on a Greek stage!

Lee Patterson [uk]

Lee Patterson lives in Manchester. He records everything using all kinds of

microphones and hydrophones. He uses the sounds of his collection live on stage

combining then with others that he creates on the spot (fireworks, warm bottles etc.)

One of the most interesting and creative musicians of his generation.

Michael Francis Duch [no]

Half Norwegian and half Scottish. Bassist of Dog & Sky but also interpreter of works

from composers such as Feldman and Cage Cage. He is also a DJ with new wave and

electropop constancies as well as an actor! Above all one of the most adventurous

Norwegian contrabassists.

Alessandra Rombola [it it]

Even though she is a classically trained Flutist, Alessandra Rombola has been devoting

herself for a long time to unorthodox techniques that led her in the literal

deconstruction of the instrument and to a unique sound microcosm. This is the one

she is presenting live in her solo appearance in the 8th 2:13 Festival.
