After selling out two nights at Komedia in March, we welcome back the queens of the dance floor!
“Tell them what you want - the time will soon be gone…”
Like the lyrics from their latest single C’est si Bon (it's so good!) that features on the album, the honeyed harmonising trio - consisting of the three strong voices of Piya Malik (El Michels Affair staple feature, and former backing singer for Chicano Batman), Sabrina Mileo Cunningham and Nya Gazelle Brown who front the band - stay true to their word. These women have something to say and they are not afraid to play with the medium. Leaning into their “boundary busting discodelic soul” (The Guardian), their flawless harmonies twist and writhe, capturing listeners hearts with buttery vocals, fat funky basslines, catchy hooks and up-tempo grooves.
Silver oozes with quirk and the album is an adventure through 16 songs - a double sided LP that opens with an incantation and ends with the title track that will lull you into a dreamscape with a locked groove of silver noise

Devon Rexi is an Amsterdam-based group creating dubby, playful experimental music.
The fried-Farsi vocals sing in the diasporic language of the ‘inbetween worlds’- taking the listener to alternate realms of liminality. Otherworldly screeches and rings, intricate drum patterns, simple dubby bass lines and rhythmic guitar riffs guide you to the ready-to-explore
corners of reality.
Originally formed by Nicolini on drums and vocals and Nushin Naini on bass and vocals, Devon Rexi has since expanded into a quintet with Goya van der Heyden and Daniel(/…). Van der Heyden creates an electronic touch accompanied with some percussion, while Walter Theo (guitar) stretches the sound into more groovy territories.
On their recent release, Biya Ba Man (2024), the band’s special brand of post-punky psych-funk can be heard: pitch-shifted vocals – sometimes chanting, sometimes chirping - intertwine with distorted grooves, propelled by percussion and bass.

Bon Enfant is a quintet as plural as its members and horizons, for whom rock is as much a passion as a way of life. Formed at the end of the previous decade by Daphné Brissette and Guillaume Chiasson as a means of breaking new ground, the band was soon joined by Etienne Côté (LUMIÈRE), Melissa Fortin and Alex Burger - and soon delivered a homonymous debut album, celebrated as the best Franco of 2019 by Le Devoir and awarded the Lucien for Rock Album of the following year at GAMIQ.
From the outset, the band's groovy pop sound borrowed notably from folk-rock and psych, and two years later they came back with Diorama, an even broader palette, incorporating aspects of image music, disco, hard rock and glam rock - a convincing combination that earned them the Félix for Rock Album of the Year at the 2022 ADISQ gala.
It wasn't long before the band was touring Quebec, Europe and the U.K. - the beginning of a global craze that discredited the territorial issue of language in favor of good tunes. Shaping a permeable, open-minded rock that always avoids pastiche, the band persists in adapting popular resonances while embracing new musical niches for the future: Demande spéciale will be released this autumn under Duprince Records.

Tramhaus is the daring postpunk sensation from the restless and ever-innovative city of Rotterdam. In the
span of its relatively short existence, Tramhaus has managed to make a name far beyond the borders of
their hometown. Marked by their joyous and energetic experience, the band has proven to be able to convey this message both in live and recorded settings. The music of Tramhaus feels like a soundtrack to
a vivacious, mysterious, and dangerous story. There is no room to lean back as the band takes you with
them in a drag race full of emotions and euphoria driven by streamlined, fiery songs mixed with fragile and abstract tones. This whole spectacle is fueled by the near-symbiotic relationship between the five band members.

Ghost Funk Orchestra is a genre-bending collective that merges the soulful depths of classic funk with the cinematic textures of psychedelia, jazz, and Afrobeat. Founded by multi-instrumentalist Seth Applebaum, this NYC-based group creates an atmospheric, groove-driven soundscape that feels both retro and futuristic. With a heavy focus on brass, deep basslines, and haunting vocal harmonies, Ghost Funk Orchestra conjures a mystical, ethereal vibe that transports listeners into a world of swirling rhythms and cinematic grandeur.
Their music is perfect for fans of artists like Fela Kuti, Sly & The Family Stone, and Khruangbin, but with a more experimental twist. Each track feels like a journey, from the hypnotic instrumental jams to their soul-stirring lyrical moments. Whether live or in the studio, Ghost Funk Orchestra delivers an immersive experience that’s as mysterious as it is funky, making it a must-listen for anyone craving a unique, genre-defying sound that will linger long after the music fades.

Co-founded by Detroit natives Rahill Jamalifard and Lenny Lynch, Habibi got its start in Brooklyn in 2011, earning early raves everywhere from Pitchfork and NME to All Things Considered and The New Yorker, who praised the band for infusing “the Colgate-white glisten of sixties-girl-group pop with an uncensored edge.”
Dreamachine, Habibi’s mesmerizing new record releasing on Kill Rock Stars, marks a major sonic evolution for the band, rising beyond the critically acclaimed five-piece’s garage rock roots to arrive at a singular swirl of analog and digital elements that underpin their search for spiritual and physical transcendence. Produced by Tyler Love and longtime collaborator Jay Heiselmann and featuring MGMT multi-instrumentalist James Richardson, the collection draws on a mix of post-punk, experimental pop, and vintage disco, calling to mind Tom Verlaine, Diana Ross, Kate Bush, and Kim Deal, all filtered through the band’s shared love of Middle Eastern psych music. The songs here are their own distinct worlds, each an immersive quest in pursuit of something greater, and the band’s performances are relentless and hypnotic to match, driven by lush synthesizers, sinewy guitars, and a muscular rhythm section. The result is a record as fearless as it is enthralling, an alternatingly fierce and joyous work that ascends to new heights as it reckons with desire and escape, love and surrender, rebellion and reality.

Newcastle based rockers Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs are delighted to announce a new headline UK tour for April 2025.
Simultaneously the band bludgeon back with 'Detroit' - the first taste of new material from the Pigs pen since February 2023's 'Land of Sleeper' LP release. 'Detroit' is a huge slab of striking noise rock about a hideous man with even worse behaviours. Says band bellower Matt Baty on the track: "Detroit reflects on the worst manifestations of male jealousy and resentment, and the ways in which the deliberate avoidance of accountability can lead to deflecting responsibility in exchange for blaming external forces like fate or God for perceived injustice".
