Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen


On the legendary pirate ship Lightning sails under the flag of the legendary Captain Blake a fearless and daring team of adventurous pirates. The most adventurous of course is certainly the gun crew by Mr. Hurley. From their escaping escapades the captain had enough in 2009 for the first time and sent them on land to get away. Since they were accustomed as gunners to make a great deal of noise, they continued this habit on land, and now they land on the platforms and pubs, making their instruments as devastating as we can their guns at sea.

Midgaard Band


Founders: Ragnar - guitar and Semund - bass. The intention and purpose of the musicians has always been to try to catch the atmosphere and the feeling of Norse mythology, combined with the intensity of the northern folk themes mixed with the metal. Title "Midgaard" was taken from Norse mythology, Midgard - a Midlands - housing people. Was created by Odin and his brothers from the bodies of the giant Ymir. Sparks and embers from Muspell were installed in mid-Ginnungagap to give light to Midgard. They became stars, pointing the way ...

History and discography of the group:

The first concert was on September 9, 2006. It's was Viking Metal, based on ancient Scandinavian myths.
In 2007 recorded the first demo-album 'Midgardr'. In connection with the permutations of 2007, the band begins to play in the style of Nordic Folk.

Jötnar Band


The Dutch folk metal band Jötnar started in 2008 writing about the quintessential folk themes: the Gods of old, Viking lore and ancient wars inspired Jötnars songs. In more recent years Jötnar has chosen not to limit themselves to just these themes. Writing songs about both the serious and outlandish, they fused different styles in their music while still staying faithful to their folk metal roots.

Lucas - Vocals, keys
Koen - Guitar, tin whistle

Valravn


With the second album ”Koder på snor” (2009), Valravn took new steps towards an even more personal music, which is true to its Nordic roots but is equally a child of the present and the future.


Edgy, atmospheric and deliciously fearless, Valravn drags the listener on a mental and musical journey over sweeping forests and deep into moody waters. The result is strange and wonderful, intensely outlandish and utterly hypnotic.

On the album as much as live, the charismatic Faroe Islands singer Anna Katrin Egilstrøð is the narrative heart of Valravn - with a rare and very efficient dynamic, she moves from storm to stillness with the natural ease of the sea rising with the tide.
Transforming the traditional into the extraordinary, Valravn finds an edgy drama that is just downright fierce, painting a landscape that is thoroughly modern but with ancient callings.
A stunning, headlong leap into folktronica.

"In summer 2013 we played the final concerts of a long and amazing journey which has been the 8 years of Valravn. We have travelled to 20 countries with our music, playing over 300 shows in clubs, at festivals, in schools, at markets, in theatres, in the streets, in castles, on the mountainside and in the woods…
We have met so many great and inspiring people along the way, from sister bands to our beloved audience, from professional crews to crazy freaks. We are deeply grateful for having had the opportunity to share Valravn with you."
