Backline presents:
Supersport! (Art Pop, ISL)
Hailing from the grassroots of Reykjavík’s vibrant music scene, Supersport! remain
champions of the DIT (do-it-together) ideology, and “Iceland’s most productive indie band”,
as all four members have been active participants of the influential Post-dreifing collective
since its 2018 founding. This work has deeply influenced their values, the way they create
and how they relate to their community and their fans.
On “allt sem hefur gerst” Supersport! are at their most vulnerable yet. Still, playfulness
remains at the heart of the piece, as they seek ways to contextualise formative experience;
making sense of chaotic pain and progress, regret and joy. Opening track, “gráta smá” is
perhaps the most jarring example with singer Bjarni Daníel drawing comparisons between
himself and his father and his father’s father; discovering the likenesses and feeling in them
both deep pride and existential terror.
Ruido Ruiz & the Lovebirds (Indie, CH)
fun guitar music with pop-hooks and face-melting riffs - ruido ruiz makes music you can kind of dance to but not really - always accompanied by the friends he made along the way e.g. the love birds
Suprise Guests tba.
