JARBOE (USA-exSwans)
Jarboe draws from a variety of sources: childhood in the Mississippi delta and New Orleans, life in NYC’s east village during the post no-wave scene as member of the band Swans, university studies in literature and theatre, global travels, and a history of extensive recordings, collaborations (Philip Anselmo, Attila Csihar, Blixa Bargeld, J.G. Thirlwell, Merzbow, PanSonic, Chris Connelly, Neurosis and many others), and performances (clubs, theaters, art galleries, cathedrals, festivals, live radio, television, film).
Jarboe’s voice and music is known for bold experimental as well as melodic diversity and expression. Over the course of her life through efforts in past and present disciplines, Jarboe explores the rebuilding/reinventing of identity and the elemental structures of personae.


FATHER MURPHY (IT)
Father Murphy is the sound of the Catholic sense of Guilt.
A downward spiral aiming at the bottom of the hollow, and then digging even deeper.Through the years, the band became one of the most interesting and peculiar musical entities coming out of Italy, especially well known for their really intense live shows, something in between a rite and an artistic performance.
They furiously performed all over Europe and toured North America with Deerhoof, Dirty Beaches, Iceage and Xiu Xiu, and has been praised by the Archdruid Julian Cope, Michael Gira, Geoff Barrow, among lots of others.
Leading figures of that community that Simon Reynolds defined “Italian Occult Psychedelia”, the outfit last effort is the 2015 trilogy of the Cross, consisting of three different releases on the topic: Calvary (Blue Tapes), Croce (The Flenser) and Lamentations (Backwards).
