Acts

• The beloved six-piece banda-cover geniuses KażinSka; a group of young musicians and friends that together give their own interpretation of traditional marches’ melodies. These interpretations are dressed into ska, reggae, samba, jazz, R&B, electronic music etc.
• The prolific and supremely talented singer Nadine Axisa with her classically trained voice, accompanied by pianist Christian Borg in a set which takes inspiration from latin, swing and soul music.
• Based in Gozo, Roundhouse Kick is a band of seasoned musicians specialise in 70’s classic rock covers.
• The fun-loving gypsy swing outfit Swing Nuages bringing their vibrant swing sound to the stage with uptempo and retro music in the style of the 1930s.
• Teatru Unplugged was an opportunity to see the award-winning band Red Electrick in it’s most pared-back format. As an added bonus, their five-man set up was increasing to seven exclusively for this show.
