small town
Friends Quentin, Timo, Johannes, Karl and Fabio explore the joys and sorrows of young people with their German-language rock-pop songs, taking a deep look into their souls. Influences from punk and indie, paired with fast pop beats, modern guitar riffs and atmospheric synth sounds, convey emotional worlds such as first love, heartache, friendship and getting older. The boys have known each other for over 15 years and have been making music together for ten years. Endless hours in the rehearsal room and recording studio resulted in their debut album "kleinstadt" in 2022, and the quintet followed up with "all die jahre" in 2023. Their deep connection to their home town of Herrenberg and to each other is evident in every one of their songs. With songs such as "all die jahre", "3 mal" and "deine blauen augen", kleinstadter celebrated streaming success - but nowhere does the band feel more at home than live on stage. Whether at the Kesselfestival 2022 in Stuttgart, the Feschtiwaal 2023 in Herrenberg or at smaller gigs - the audience always gets "kleinstadt pure". The fun and energy spills over into the crowd and sends the audience on a journey into their innermost selves. Performing, spending time together - that is and remains kleinstadt's greatest incentive. Five friends on the road move from their small town out into the wide world and capture the hearts of all those who want to be part of this wonderful journey.
JISKA
JISKA's music is the gateway to a brightly colored, tipsy, untidy world. Ancient soul dynamics meet youthful indie pop attitude. JISKA has an international feel to it - and not just because of the English-language lyrics - and is reminiscent of the releases of the young Lilly Allen in its lightness and vigilance. The scratchy, warm voice always seems only centimeters away from the listener's ear and is always in the foreground without ever imposing itself. JISKA, real name Jana Franziska Binder, was born in 1999 in the Stuttgart area and has been surrounded by music from her very first breath.
After completing her education, JISKA spends two months in Valencia, Spain, where she records her debut EP "Wild Blue Yonder", which is released in July 2022 and contains the first seven-digit streamed hit "Girl Next Door". JISKA then tours Germany with Betterovund Rhodes. She rotates on the radio, is nominated for the New Music Award 2022 by Deutschlandfunk Nova, featured on SWR-Kultur, among others, and accepted into the "Bandpool" support program of the Popakademie Mannheim. Gigs at renowned events such as SZIGET Budapest or Jazz Open Stuttgart are followed by 'It was you', the herald of their debut album "Socially Awkward", which is now scheduled for release on April 4, 2025.
Dews Pegahorn
An emerging force on the music scene with roots in Madagascar and China, Dews Pegahorn captivates audiences with his unique sound and magnetic stage presence. In just 10 months, Stuttgart-born Dews Pegahorn has achieved what many musicians dream of for years: he has stormed the underground music scene with his uncompromising rock releases and is now reaping his first laurels in the mainstream. While he has long been celebrated in the alternative scene as one of the most exciting new voices, the big players in the music industry are now also beginning to take notice of the charismatic artist. With a discography consisting of just 9 releases and a remix of his biggest hit to date, "Runnin'", Pegahorn has already created an unmistakable style.
However, the Stuttgart native with Malagasy-Chinese roots is not standing still - on the contrary: the new projects he is currently working on sound more radical and even bolder than anything he has released to date. One thing remains clear: his sound remains sonically unmistakable.
At his live shows, fans can look forward to newly arranged versions of his songs, which turn the already driving, manic-depressive sound into a wild rollercoaster ride on stage. With high speed and powerful drums, he makes his audience dance - an experience that no one should miss.
