Katya Shirshkova

Born in Siberia but based in France, Katya Shirshkova uses her own voice to create hypnotising polyphonic harmonies with layered compositions and dense performances. During this night she will perform her piece ‘Le Héron’, which was released on Stellage in 2025.


Tomáš Niesner

From Central Europe comes Czech guitarist and sound artist Tomáš Niesner. On his latest album ‘adventous mmxxv’ he takes the calming, somewhat majestic atmospheres of Eastern European medieval hymns and turns them into minimalist guitar compositions with subtle layers of electronics.


Koude

The subdued music of Koude draws from meandering folk, slowcore, ambient and drone, folding these elements together with a quiet patience that resists easy categorization. In this formation Michiel Klein, Keimpe Koldijk and Ester Venema are building on their previous collaborations in acts such as Blessum (Vrystaete), Eklin (Night People) and Mike Koldin (Samling). The trio works with electric guitars, bass guitar, synthesizers, sparse percussion and occasional voice.
