AmistatBorn in Germany, with roots in the Czech Republic and Australia, twin brothers Josef and Jan Prasil are the founders of folk-pop group Amistat. They share an unspoken and unexplainable bond best sung aloud and exemplified by their close harmonies and eloquent song craft. Songs unfold like stories with two narrators, allowing both voices space to ring out. After selling out their entire European tour and performing on multiple continents, the duo’s vibrancy shines on their 2023 EP ‘Colour In Life’.

Bia FerreiraBia Ferreira is a Brazilian singer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and artivist that defines her music as "MMP — Música de Mulher Preta" (Black Woman Music). Her songs are against racism, homophobia and other subjects. Her songs are all about feminism and love. Politics is also a topic. She’s been playing solo or with a band all over Brazil and in Europe since 2017. In October 2022, she played a showcase at the WOMEX in Lisbon, which turned out to be one of the best shows of the fair. That showcase (and of course, all that Bia Ferreira has been making since teenager) finally gave her what she always wanted: that her music could be heard by people from all around the world, even sung in Portuguese. In 2023 between Europe and USA/Canada she played 53 shows (solo and with her band) in countries like Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, France, Italy,Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the UK. She did festivals like Womad Rome, Shambala Festival UK, North Sea Jazz Fest Netherlands, Mare and Mercat de Música de Vic in Spain among others. In the USA she played in the Summer for the city festival at Lincoln Center. This year, she played at Global Fest at Lincoln Center in New York.

Ken PomeroyKen Pomeroy will break your heart. She’ll do it with a single line––sometimes, just one word. The pain begins as an empathetic ache. Then, as Pomeroy sings her stories, you begin to see yourself in her hurt and hope. And you realize: We’re in this together.
Pomeroy’s outstretched hand to the wounded manifests as startlingly good songs. Her soprano is comforting––almost sweet––but perhaps most powerful delivering a devastating line. A deft guitarist, she opts for beds of rootsy strings that can soothe or haunt. But it’s her writing that really shines and stings. “Writing was and is the only way I can fully express an emotion and feel like I got it out,” she says. “I feel like once I get it out into a song, I don’t have to worry about it anymore. If it’s a traumatic thing that happened, I kind of act as if it’s gone.”
Pomeroy creates a wild but safe space of her own––a space that, like 22-year-old Pomeroy herself, is brutally honest, proudly Native American, and undeniably brilliant.
People have noticed. Pomeroy’s “Wall of Death” made its way onto the Twisters soundtrack, while Hulu’s Reservation Dogs featured her soul-mining gem, “Cicadas.” Tour dates with Lukas Nelson, Iron &

Brighde ChaimbeulWinner of the BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award and youngest ever winner of the BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award, Scotland’s Brighde Chaimbeul has established herself among the leading experimental purveyors of celtic music. A native gaelic speaker from the Isle of Skye her style is rooted in her native language and culture but takes inspiration from a variety of global forms. Brighde plays the Scottish smallpipes, a bellows-powered set of bagpipes with a double-note drone. She has devised a completely unique way of arranging for pipe music that emphasises the rich textural drones of the instrument; the constancy of sound that creates a trance-like atmosphere. In 2021 Brighde performed on the smallpipes to world leaders and listeners across the globe, as the musician of the opening ceremony of COP 26. Her 2019 debut album, The Reeling, won her major media plaudits and five-star reviews for its fresh reading of traditional gaelic tunes and outward looking assimilation of influences, played with and enticing virtuosic liquidity. "Unique, exciting and forward-looking” The Quietus ”Unforgettable deep atmosphere” The Guardian “The whole album is exciting, unique and gorgeous” Songlines
