This Leo Sunrise
This year, the five-piece This Leo Sunrise celebrates its 20th anniversary. They are known for their delicate, folk-influenced rock and experimental instrumentation. The fourth album “…and still return…” (2026) is a double LP documenting two decades of musical evolution. The songs were recorded live with a maximum-of-three-takes rule in an old hunting lodge in the Limburg forests. The band has toured extensively abroad, supported renowned acts such as Damien Jurado, Bonnie Prince Billy, The Low Anthem, Willard Grant Conspiracy, and Esmerine, and recorded a session for VPRO Dwars.
Hester‘s indie-rock ballads are a sonic testimony that softness and strength go hand in hand. Whilst promoting soft-activism, Hester turns grieving music into something uplifting, with enchanting falsettos, cinematic guitars and the occasional punk punch. “Softness is not surrender, it is resistance!” For fans of Tamino, Gorillaz and Agnes Obel.
