Minimal Schlager stand at the crossroads between Italo disco, the darker corners of new wave and forgotten sounds from the dive clubs of Berlin. Following on from their debut Love, Sex and Dreams and described by UNCUT as a “classy synthpop melodrama” - the band went on a European tour performing 30 dates across 8 countries and supporting the likes of The KVB, Ploho, Torres and Jaakko Eino Kalevi.

Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys is an art pop/alternative band based in Berlin. The group, founded by South African-born artist Lucy Kruger, is known for creating music full of atmosphere and intensity. Their prolific output and memorable live shows have attracted attention from both audiences and critics alike.

Lucy Kruger has earned a reputation as a unique and accomplished vocalist and songwriter. In 2023, she co-wrote and recorded a song with the well-known music group, ‘The Frank Popp Ensemble.’ She also features as a vocalist on the latest releases of ‘The Underground Youth’ as well as the highly respected alternative group ‘Swans.’

A heavenly voice couched in spellbinding western noir ballads, with a devastating emotional delivery, Holly Macve explores a dreamlike, pictorial world within her songwriting; English Rose meets Mulholland Drive Lynchian glamour. With vocal notes of Chris Isaak and Patsy Cline and a unique skill of writing timeless melodies, Macve evokes a warmth and transcendence comparable to a black and white film from the 1950’s.

Having released two critically acclaimed records, she is currently recording and producing her new album, which she describes as her most honest storytelling to date, exploring themes such as abuse, existential fear, the rise, and demise of romantic relationships, and life through the eyes of a melancholic, yet hopeful, self-confessed dreamer.
