BRANT BJORK & THE BROS ADDED TO ROADBURN!
Brant Bjork & The Bros will be playing the 11th Roadburn Festival as well on saturday, april 22, 2006.

SPACEHEAD
Spacehead will be opening up the spacerock stage with their blistering psychedelic spacerock!
Spacehead's Mr. Dibs was a founder member of legendary space-rock outfit Krel, who gigged extensively in the early nineties, famously supporting Hawkwind on the Electric Teepee Tour in 1992. Spacehead formed in 1994, originally as a solo project, but with great interest in the first cassette release, Mr.Dibs was inspired to put a full band together, and a few albums followed.

"Hermano live at w2" nu op CD!
Het uitverkochte concert van Hermano van 4 december 2004 was het beste concert in de w2 van afgelopen jaar! En... is nu verkrijgbaar op cd! Hoor wat je hebt gemist of geniet nogmaals (en laat de buurt meegenieten) van dit te gekke optreden van John Garcia en zijn hermanos: klik hier om te bestellen!

HERMANO - Live at W2

Alhoewel Hermano in 1998 begon als een zij-project van verschillende muzikanten, was het al snel duidelijk dat Hermano wel degelijk een band was. Met leden als John Garcia (Kyuss/Unida), David Angstrom (Black Cat Bone /Supafuzz), Steve "Dandy" Brown (Dock Ellis/Orquesta del Desierto), Steve Earle (Afghan Whigs) & Mike Callahan (Disengage/Earshot), wist Hermano een uniek geluid te creeëren.

4 December 2004 speelde de band in de W2 in Den Bosch en hier hebben ze hun eerste live-album opgenomen. Het was de laatste show van hun Europese tour en misschien wel de beste van de hele tour. Dat de Amerikanen onder leiding van 'stonerrock goeroe' John Garcia die avond goed op dreef waren blijkt uit het feit dat dit concert door de W2 bezoekers vorig jaar uitgeroepen werd tot concert van het jaar!

Spread the rock!

Line up:
Vocals: John Garcia
Guitar: David Angstrom
Guitar: Mike Callahan
Bass: Dandy Brown
Drums: Chris Leathers
