***MEAGRE MARTIN
Berlin-based songwriter-turned-trio Meagre Martin was founded in the summer of 2021 by the African-American musician and songwriter Sarah Martin (guitar, she/her) and quickly joined by Federico "Freddy" Corazzini (drums, he/him) and Max Hirtz-Wolf (bass, he/him). Blending together elements of lo-fi and new-Americana, Meagre Martin is a culmination of experience rooted in healing, through lyricism that gives nostalgia new layers and harnesses the power of grief. Their debut GUT PUNCH (release in November 2023 via Mansions and Millions) create a sound inspired by shoegaze, 90's indie, or 'faux country,' as the band calls it, and juxtaposes these beautifully light
soundscapes with lyrics that belie the sweetness of the sound with their vulnerability and depth. Their recent release "Malcom" (out March 4th) addresses financial instability and the vibrancy of lower/middle class American life. Inspired by the relatable chaos of "Malcolm in the Middle." The lyrics mirror a journey from generational trauma to breaking free. Their latest single "Never Thought" (September 2024) questions how well we know the people in our lives, and how our security in them can still be shaken even after years of knowing them. The chords and melodies encircle and repeat, much like the rumination of thoughts in our heads.

***PALANCA (Noise-Pop, Santiago de Chile/Munich)
Constanza Meléndez and Daniel Door have been playing experimental noise-pop together since 2024. With distorted taishokoto, bass synths, acoustic drums and sample drums, they tell stories of broken apartments, spambot incantations and critical infrastructure.
