Few projects manage to merge as many genres and artistic forms as GusGus. In the second half of the 90s, they showed that Icelandic scene is far from being about Björk only. Several successful artists (e.g. Emiliana Torrini) kicked off their career in this band. During two decades, they recorded ten albums to critical acclaim, including the latest two Mexico and Lies Are More Flexible. Biggi Veira described their philosophy in last year’s interview for Wave Radio: “I love when the music gives me goose bumps.” We believe that their concert at Pohoda 2018 will have the same effect on our visitors. → read more

In 2014, Nakhane won a South African Music Award for Best Alternative Album. He also has a couple of film awards for playing a starring role in film The Wound under his belt. Up until recently, he was not really known in the rest of the world, though. Everything changed this year with the release of his album You Will Not Die on which he copes with the conflict between his upbringing, religion and sexuality. The Guardian, BBC, GQ, Elle, Noisey or DIY singing the praises of him in their reviews put the spotlight on the artist. According to the media, his album is electrifying, charming and has made the dancefloor “a place of tenderness”. Nakhane is going to confirm these statements at Trenčín Airport at the beginning of July. → read more

On Saturday afternoon, Monika said yes to her beloved Andrej in the Krasnanyʼs St. Sebastianʼs Cathedral. Besides the last name, the just married Matiašovskýs share the passion for running, hiking, table football, and especially for music (particularly singing): they met in the Pezinokʼs choir Ad Una Corda which now ornamented their wedding ceremony and reception with great songs and programme. The couple is not tuned just in the choir—they showed team spirit also in the table-football tournament before last yearʼs Pohoda, when nobody could stand a chance against their team called “Love from Pezinok”. We wish the just married couple to stay well tuned and harmonized every day of their life together. → read more

Lyrik, Bene, and Roland Kánik, one stage, and a great joy of the release of the new album “Luxus clan”: they replaced their motto “more boring than life” with “about everything and nothing rap”, but it still is the same old Lyrik, the same old Bene backed by Roland. Self-reflection instead of egotrips and interestingly arranged background music instead of generic samples: Modré hory will present their new excellent album also at Pohoda 2018.   → read more
