The line up :

Thursday 6th December

ALESSANDRA ROMBOLA [it]

Even though she is a classically trained Flutist, Alessandra Rombola has been devoting herself for a long time to unorthodox techniques that led her in the literal deconstruction of the instrument and to a unique sound microcosm. This is the one she is presenting live in her solo appearance in the 8th 2:13 Festival.


LEE PATTERSON [uk]

Lee Patterson lives in Manchester. He records everything using all kinds of microphones and hydrophones. He uses the sounds of his collection live on stage combining then with others that he creates on the spot (fireworks, warm bottles etc.) One of the most interesting and creative musicians of his generation.

CRANC [uk - gr]

Rhodri Davies - electric harp
Angharad Davies - violin
Nikos Veliotis - cello

They appear rarely and they record even more so… Starting from a ‘zoum plink plonk’ aesthetic around ten years ago, they quickly passed on to extreme calm atmospheres developing a kind of sound, that although based on acoustic instruments, it often sounds electronic.

Friday 7th December

MICHAEL FRANCIS DUCH [no]

Half Norwegian and half Scottish. Bassist of Dog & Sky but also interpreter of works from composers such as Feldman and Cage. He is also a DJ with new wave and electropop constancies as well as an actor! Above all one of the most adventurous Norwegian contrabassists.

SACHIKO M [jp]

Already in the scene since 1994. In 1998 Sachiko left ‘plunderphonics’ behind her once and for all and since then she plays ‘sine waves’ in other words her sampler’s test tones. Her solo recordings are considered already classics in the experimental field! Although she has appeared in the majority of new music festivals around the globe, this is her first time on a Greek stage!

HUNTSVILLE [no]

Ivar Grydeland – guitars, banjo + other instruments
Tony Kluften – contrabass + other instruments
Ingar Zach – percussion, tabla machine, sarangi box, shruti box + other instruments

Huntsville had a great impact with their first CD release ‘For the Middle Class’ in Rune Grammofon but they are even better live! With numerous instruments that include banjo to Indian beat boxes, they are flirting with long grooves and melodies, combining them with frequencies and noises!

Saturday 8th December
