Den Tex is a group of 6 young men playing music from the heart and without fear of breaking out of the usual 3minute-3chord popsong convention. With its warm sound and message of positive change, this original music reminiscing of the good ol’ blues and rythm & soul of the ’60s and ’70s, is ready to speak for a new generation of lovers and fighters.

The band was named after an infamous house in the centre of Amsterdam. A place for fools and thinkers, this house became a safe haven for all of us. For members of the band in particular, whether they had grown up there, lived there or just came by to salute their brothers and sisters, this was our house. And now it’s yours too. With much love, we are Den Tex.

Stems are a trio from the UK that play neoclassical postrock on violin, alto violin and guitar with loopstation. Their music builds and builds on simple rythms and melodies to create overwhelming musical landscapes. Crescendo’s are interwoven with dreamy violins, elements from Eastern and Western classical music are used alongside avant garde guitar techniques to sweep the audience along without screaming for attention.

Donations for the bands are much appreciated and will go straight to the artsits. Mind you: we don’t have a PIN machine yet!
