ESNS 2022: A digital spectacle We’re well into Jamuary and that can only mean one thing: It’s almost time for Eurosonic — Those magical couple of days when our hometown of Groningen turns into the musical and cultural hotspot of Europe.
Eurosonic 2021 — The show must go on The biggest European showcase event of the year is Eurosonic. It’s not only the first festival of the season, but also marks the beginning of Chordify. Say what?! Yup, we officially launched during Eurosonic 2013.
Elsa Birgitta Bekman likes to recount her dreams in a waltz Elsa Birgitta Bekman added a romantic flavor to our Chordify x IDK Studio at Eurosonic. With roots in Sweden and France, her songs take you on a journey through nature, love and desires that sway like waltzes. We spoke with Bekman just after her gig. Hi Elsa, how are you?
Them Dirty Dimes – prewar tunes with a modern ring The Chordify x IDK Studio drew a lot of attention at Eurosonic from visitors and passersby alike. Not all live sessions have the same vibes, but you know the crowd's digging it as soon as they start huddling around the glass case, which is the studio, to start dancing.
ESNS Bad Nerves live session: sometimes wearing a helmet on stage is a good idea After an energetic session in our Chordify x IDK Studio on the Vismarkt during Eurosonic, we had the chance to talk with bassist Jon, and guitarists Will and James from the punk band Bad Nerves.
Cashmyra at Eurosonic – about songwriting, effects pedals, and finding your sound After an energetic live concert we interviewed Cashmyra and Djai-Mac in our Chordify x IDK Studio at Eurosonic. Is being a virtuoso essential for playing in a band? How do you write songs? And why is front woman Cashmyra, in her own opinion, a failed bassist?
The Howl & The Hum – about touring and their favorite gear Every year at Eurosonic we get our annual fix of fresh music. This time, we were fortunate to participate with our own studio on the Vismarkt in Groningen. We recorded live sessions with several artists, The Howl & The Hum being one of them.
Throwback to Eurosonic 2020 Has it been a month already, since Eurosonic took our hometown by storm? Yup, time flies. We look back on this edition of the European showcase festival with a smile. Why? Because we enjoyed ourselves, saw good shows, and recorded some good live sessions.
Black Sea Dahu is always on tour Black Sea Dahu almost made us cry during Eurosonic. Yeah, we are kind of sensitive by nature, but the particular vibe and melancholic melodies of this Swiss act, kicked us right in the feelz.
