TOM HECK TRIO  tom heck 


tom heck is certainly one of luxembourg's youngest
yet biggest emancipating talents. 
he's back in LiquID with his now confirmed trio,
sided by tiziano felicini on solid bass and driven by
a steady and impressive michel meis on drums.


This trio plays a clever and moving blend of blues,
flirting with jazz and fusion at times - tom likes it all,
he's young and he dares and it works amazingly!

 
his website is currently under reconstruction but

check it out soon here

DJEVARA (UK)

support act: MITHRAPHREQ & COCKROACH (LU)


Divided-We-Fall-POSTER-MINIMIZED_WEB

 

probably the heaviest gig we've had in LiquID so far.
i guess our friday night croud won't mind, would you?

thus we happen to burry Jesus Christ today, so i think
this is probably THE occasion ;) 

Often described as furious, energetic, schizophrenic and passionate -Djevara play a unique and experimental blend of post-hardcore/punk rock and progressive, alternative metal that sees them as a determined force in the UK, European and international underground scenes. Fiercely independent and rooted in DIY, musically they chart ever more progressive territory; dense antagonistic melodies vying with pure, unfettered anger for attention to wrap around a viscerally personal urban poetry.

This is raw emotional music, but not for the faint of heart. The band are also active in a number of projects ranging from The Low Fidelity Disconnect arts project in North London to organising several DIY events and shows.

they will be supported by MITHRAPHREQ & COCKROACH, MC's from Luxembourg ;)

BABY FACE

AND HER SCRAP DEALERS

 

a new comer to LiquID this Thursday :)
we are happy and excited to present you
this very original project ;)

baby face 01

BABY
 FACE & HER SCRAP DEALERS bridges the gap 
between the origins of blues and actual rock music, 
tributes the whole family genres: stomp, shuffle, boogie... 

Treated with anti-rust, this trio unpacks the entire 
flea market (vocals, bass drums, sousaphone, dobro, 
tambourine, trombone, banjo, guitar) to repaint the entire
bluesmen repertoire...

POL BELARDI'S MYSTORY
 

This fairly new, Amsterdam-based band
Pol Belardi's Mystory Photofocuses on the playing of mainly original 
music with a fresh and exciting sound, 
blending influences ranging from the large 
jazz tradition to the new and hip improvised 
music of today, but drawing as well 
much inspiration from alternative rock, 
pop and electronic music. 

The result is an interesting sonic experience
created and brought to you by the four young
musicians from across Europe, whose paths
crossed during their jazz studies at the
Conservatory of Amsterdam in 2011."

Keno Harriehausen - piano
Yoel Molina - guitar
Pit Dahm - drums
Pol Belardi - bass
