Pinguin Radio Showcases: Lowaddicts, Löna, Salesmen en Zoetwater

Pinguin Radio Showcases draait maar om één ding en dat is het etaleren van nieuwe artiesten. Ook hier in ons Magazine showcasen we telkens een aantal artiesten die je gezien of gemist hebt op het festival tijdens ESNS in De Drie Gezusters.

Lowaddicts – Pinguin Radio Showcases 19 januari – Groote Griet 

A powerful, warm electronica-act that moves between house, pop and trip-hop: that’s the best way to describe Lowaddicts. The typical Lowaddicts-ambiance gives you the urge to dance but also the feeling of dreaming away on a warm summer night. Dillan, Maaike and Tessa, all coming from different musical backgrounds, combined their forces, resulting in the Lowaddicts-sound.

The name Lowaddicts is a reference to the yearly Lowlands Festival: A place where all possible forms of music can exist next to each other and where ambiance is the most important factor. Something that also applies to Lowaddicts. In their music, atmosphere is always central and with that they create a place where everything; style, musical background and personality comes together.

Löna – Pinguin Radio Showcases 19 januari – Musicmaker Groote Griet 

LÖNA’s melancholic sound is the perfect Dark & Stormy cocktail. The identical twin sisters mix rough synth sounds with ethereal guitars and a lot of four-to-the-floor beats, to give it a nice kick. Together with heartfelt lyrics about for example the passing of their dad, activism and (LGBT) love make the LÖNA-formula complete. As you listen to their music, you can imagine a cold and dark open Scandinavian landscape, hence their northern-sounding band name which means “valuable” in Swedish. The dutch twins are inspired by northern acts such as Björk, AURORA and Tove Lo.

Salesmen – Pinguin Radio Showcases 18 januari – Tikibar 

Salesmen is a four-piece rock band that originated in The Hague in 2020. They first took the stage in 2022 with a Benelux tour where they promoted their first EP ‘One More, Please‘.

With the help of an overwhelmingly successful crowdfunding campaign, the band released their debut album ‘Cheap Suckers’. The release was celebrated with a nearly sold out show at PAARD in The Hague and was followed by a subsequent Benelux tour.

Zoetwater – Pinguin Radio Showcases 18 januari – SiSo Stage 

Brothers Jelle and Sieb from Zoetwater perform their poetic lyrics and melancholic melodies with harmonies that only brothers can achieve. Their acoustic folk is arranged from minimalist (as a duo) to grandiose with a full band.

In 2023, the duo entered a London studio for the second time with producer Ian Grimble (known for his work with Mumford & Sons, Bear’s Den, Daughter, and Causes) to record their third EP.

New Exhibit is een frisse indierockband uit Leiden. Fuzzy, psychedelisch, maar ook to-the-point.

Lowaddicts – All The Dreams You Took

‘All The Dreams You Took describes a dark period for us, where we couldn’t look forward and dream for a while. Getting up, doing your daily routines, getting to bed but without the ability to dream. We’ve tried to capture that feeling of roaming in the dark and turn it into a track with a dreamy feel but at the same time gives you the feeling that you can’t move forward’.
