Roskilde har idag sluppet en bråte nye spennende navn til sitt allerede velfyllte program. The Whitest Boy Alive som er Erlend Øye sitt prosjekt, I'm from Barcelona fra Sverige og Wavves som har opplevd en stor hype i det siste.
Her er hva Roskilde skriver om dagens slipp:
I’M FROM BARCELONA (S) plays indie pop with a large number of winds, synthesizers, accordion and choir singers. In spite of a crew that could fill half a football team, the sound is often light and carefree in that special way that characterises Swedish pop music - from ABBA to Jens Lekman.
WAVVES (US) has in a short time become one of the hottest acts on the buzzing blogs where the young Californian has been hailed as a new great talent. Nathan Williams plays simple, catchy songs about skateboards and boredom, which he buries in a thick blanket of white guitar noise.
THE WHITEST BOY ALIVE (N/DE) delivers a quite unique combination of white funk, German electronics and catchy pop, which enthuses at concerts as well as on record. Norwegian Erlend Øye and his German playmates played with us the last time in 2007. Since then they have been high on many people’s lists of dream concerts at this year’s Roskilde Festival.
Roskilde avslører også at det vil komme flere navn om ikke lenge.
