HERENCIA DE TIMBIQUI (Colombia)

On stage: 11 + 3 crew

Touring period: t.b.c.

Based: Colombia

Booking territory: Europe

"A wonderful fusion of peaceful Afro Colombian Pacific poetry and a rhythmic contemporary urban music. It is unconventional yet danceable and energetic, featuring traditional marimba sounds." Herencia de Timibiqui's music masterfully mixes ancestral sounds from the Afro-Colombian Pacific with elements of urban contemporary music to recreate all the power and rhythm of the chonta marimba, with guasa and bombo. They combine lyrics and melodies as mighty as the jungle, the rivers, and the Pacific Ocean that surround the town this group comes from. They are the first musical group to put the chonta marimba on the Quinti Vergara stage in Chile and they were also the first to bring it to the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland in 2010. In 2013 Herencia de Timbiqui won the Silver Seagull in Festival "Viña del Mar", one of the most important musical festivals of Latin America.

FATSO (Colombia)

On stage: 7 + 1 crew

Touring period: t.b.c.

Based: Colombia

Booking territory: Europe

"A timeless sound, intelligent and passionate, sophisticated and street-wise, all at the same time"– Rolling Stone Colombia. FatsO approaches to the old dirty 30’s sound of the territory bands, as well as the Afro-American blues performed in the cabarets in the 50’s. A raw sound with a very soul-jazz, folk, blues and rock sound on the style of Willy Dixon, Ottis Redding, Marc Ribot, Gregory Porter, Leonard Cohen, Joe Cocker and Tom Waits. In spring 2016 fatsO took Europe by storm, after releasing their premiere international album “On Tape” with the German Label Jazzhaus Records. With their raw Energy emerging from the midst of Bogota with more than 8 million, it was no problem. The first indication of this was at their concert at the Music Conference, Jazz Ahead, in Bremen in April 2015, where the audience celebrated them with standing ovations.

HERMETO PASCOAL (Brazil)

On stage: 7 + 1 crew

Touring period: t.b.c.

Based: Brazil

Booking territory: Europe

“Known as “the sorcerer” or “the magician”, the music of Brazilian composer and multi-instrumentalist Hermeto Pascoal has appeared on albums by Miles Davis, who called Pascoal “the most impressive musician in the world.” Pascoal’s sextet is an extra-sensory musical unit that has been with him for over ten years and rehearses daily. The music runs from lyrical and romantic to raucous; from folkloric to futuristic, with angular melodies that often create a dense barrage of sound. Continuously inventive, the band employs synthesizers and saxophones as well as a battery of invented instruments—hub caps, teapots, and bowls of rocks—guided by Hermeto’s wizardry and benevolent spirit.” Pressit

LiGHT-UP is live projection mapping of an artistic level that's unique in it's kind, by making the audience and their surrounding co-creator and subject of the artistic process. LiGHT-UP has created a innovative and reactionary way of making art. Drawing with light makes its audience part of a surreal experience. By combining the drawing output with multiple depth cameras it is also possible to implement a drawing of a person or an object in virtual space: a fully draw in 3D! The project started in 2008 when visual artist Jan Willem Campmans developed a light painting concept. This concept quickly grew into the platform of Light-Up collective. LiGHT-UP creates immersive experiences for educational projects, television, theatre, festivals and other events.
