**Manu Louis (BE)** is a Belgium born/Berlin based singer and knob agitator that studied composition with legendary composer Fréderic Rzewski. In his music style doesn’t exist as he creates new adventures of provocative and decontextualized juxtapositions; from dissident chanson française, genial dilettante, avant-garde composers, new beat, old hits to art-pop & hard bop.

**Brandnetel (RTD)** started in 2021 following an encounter at the DHZ fietswerkplaats. In their improvisations, which include mouth harp and a healthy dose of screamo, philosophy and music meld together. Noise and melody unite in a chaotic, mysterious and emotional whole.
