SPERLING

In the organizer's words:

All people have to find their way - but how if you don't even know where you're going? SPERLING mix rap with post-hardcore and a cello. Sometimes sad and melancholic, sometimes rebellious and angry. The eloquent lyrics together with the atmospheric instrumentals result in an unusual mixture - sometimes quiet, sometimes not. While the first album "Zweifel" was initially dominated by criticism of the system and looking outwards, the word "I" is now heard much more often than "you". SPERLING have not stopped talking about the horrors of the world. However, their new songs recognize that mindfulness of oneself is now all the more necessary. "For a long time, I tried to run away from my problems or at least blame others for them. But at some point I realized that you can't run away from your demons. Only through confrontation can you gain new hope." - Jojo. From this perspective of self-reflection, the Hunsrück quartet writes on their second album: "People like me, you either forgive the world or hate it." Deep-eyed songs that create an emotional panorama of inner disorientation between sensitive reverb guitar seas, beat-heavy indie and frustrated sonic power. "On our first album, we wrote a lot about how bad everything felt. That has changed for me. I still often have the feeling of failure, but I can now take much more from it for myself. For example, I always see the next step in front of me first and not the end straight away."- Jojo. SPERLING do not provide an answer as to what the uncertain future should look like. How could they? And yet, in their despair, they always give you the feeling that you are at least not alone in all this. (Source: band info)

SUPPORT:

In a world that is slowly moving towards the abyss, divided by hatred and oppression, many seek solace in money, drugs and selfies. The shrinking middle class is resigned and apolitical, the punks have grown old and lost their anger. While many of the new generation only think about their own goals, such as career and nuclear family, there is one that is loud, for what is worth fighting for: NIKRA is the symbol of a movement that can't sleep, didn't go to school on Fridays, that lives diversity, whose anger is not understood, and that cries out for a future! NIKRA makes music for the playlist generation, whose raw sound is so loud that cell phone speakers explode. A generation that sees genre and gender categorization as an obstacle. NIKRA is the voice of rebellion and the thunder to the rainbow! (Source: Bandinfo)
