Platzhirsch präsentiert: Tristwch Y Fenywod (UK) & SUIR in der Liebfrauenkirche

In the organizer's words:

Tristwch Y Fenywod is a band of three queer women who play avant-garde gothic rock with folk, rock and digital instruments and sing their lyrics exclusively in Welsh (Cymraeg).

Tristwch Y Fenywod's music evokes Sapphic love and desire, existential darkness, political and environmental angst and celebration, psychogeographical romance, pagan mysticism, imagined explorations of Celtic history and myth, psychedelia and myriad other variations on reverie. The band was founded in 2022 in Leeds, where they also have their main residence.

Cologne-based duo SUIR create reverberant shoegaze and cinematic, atmospheric music characterized by dense and complex walls of sound. This rich, velvety sound constantly oscillates between post-punk, dark shoegaze, heavy cold wave and psychedelic, but cannot be clearly assigned to any of these genres due to their own sound creations.
