Scouting for Girls
Positive emotions are a basic ingredient of the pop-rock band Scouting for Girls. During the ten years on the scene, they have received four nominations for the BRIT Awards, four albums in the TOP 10 UK chart, four singles in the TOP 10, and a total of over two million sold albums.

Donny Benét
Thick moustache, cyclamen jacket, turquoise shorts, best of 80's sound banks, slapping bass, “sexi-sax”, drum machines, hedonistic songs, and a beach nightclub atmosphere where Matlock arrived to investigate another murder: a traveller in time and space, an inimitable imitator, a multi-instrumentalist,…
Bazzookas
Before Pohoda 2016, hardly anyone here in Slovakia knew who Bazzookas are, but when the festival ended, this band was one of those that got the most positive feedback. It seems that the attraction was mutual: At the last year’s Reeperbahn, the band awarded Pohoda the Bazzookas Award for the best…

Reykjavíkurdætur
Cold Nordic women / rap is meant for male bands only: stereotypes that everyone will cross off their list immediately after seeing “Daughters of Reykjavík” at Pohoda. This 16-member (plus a DJ) all-female band reminds you of a clan where individual solos, duos and trios alternate with…
This Is The Kit

If you analysed the most commonly used words in the reviews of this ladyʼs work, you would find expressions such as petting, beauty, peace, depth, colour, melodies, voice... In 2015, she appeared…
