• Apoptygma Berzerk

APOP reinvents itself - again - with an exciting new sound; different from, but complementary to, the electro rock future pop stylings of previous releases.

• Adam is a Girl

Berlin. A city that never sleeps., that is always in motion, always changing, and in oneself always also needs to keep moving. Hectic, shimmering lights, pulsating life. Amidst this city: Anja Adam and Alex Pierschel. Together they are ADAM IS A GIRL, a new synth-pop duo from Berlin. Just as the city in which they live and their children they are, their songs are brimming with atmosphere, energy and life. Positioned between catchy danceable songs and moving melancholy they feel the heartbeat of their city. Sometimes the heart beats rapidly, sometimes quietly. On 26th August 2016, their new single ‘Soldier’ was released digitally and the same breath, there is a fantastic video: https://youtu.be/qgWVNXKPt5Q

After having just completed an exclusive and sold-out club tour across five German cities, BIRDY will be back again during fall to play seven additional shows for her fans.

It's not with a gigantic stage show that BIRDY puts her audience under a spell, but with her charismatic voice and virtuosic piano playing.
