Abdomen is a Dutch power trio, which is sometimes described in the Dutch press as a "post-grade garage", Although they are careful themselves, To avoid any drawer or genre labels. The band consists of Roel Meijer on drums, Ate Kamsma on bass and Peter van Beets on vocals and guitar. Only Roel received training in the traditional sense. Roel and Peter are old school friends, who met again with the idea a few years after leaving school, to make music. From the jams that followed, Abdomen emerged, a name, the, how they joke, reflects the directness of their approach and attack – a “gut feeling”.

Oh Telephone have their origin in the deep valleys of the Swiss Glarnerland, where, thanks to the Veka Club, they were well socialized and made resistant to any mainstream influences. Booking agencies are all over the place with bands with Psych in their name who would like to be the next Oh-Sees and model their sound in a terribly radio-friendly way. OH TELEPHONE, on the other hand, is the real shit, Garage-Psych like no other band currently plays better. Her screams never seem calculated but rather like a spontaneous outburst of passion, Their guitars pierce every eardrum and when there are a few effects devices lying around on the floor, it's not shoegaze but tap dancing. Now the two masterminds behind their former bands SHOUTIN' MOE and THE OUTTA MIND have moved their caravan to Bern and have bred the perfect mix of their two former bands there. Together with Gael on the powerful post-punk bass and a Californian import on the efficient drums. Watch out! Celebrate!
