ROCKERILL ROOTS FESTIVAL

Nathan is a globetrotter, and his music is heavily influenced by the places he's explored. From humble French towns like Le Mans, Brest, and Lorient, to the sprawling avenues of Philadelphia. Accompanied by his guitar and a cassette player, Teenage Bed delivers a laid-back, homey pop sound, driven by a powerful voice and drawing from both folk elegance and the raw energy of grunge and noise. Think Bon Iver, Alex G, and sometimes even Bertrand Belin.

With four guys like them, something's always happening on stage. The energy emanating from Fred Janus and guitarist Jérôme Rasson makes them a perfect match. If 'The Bluesbones' can still find fans in Wallonia, that counts for this Power Shake festival, as well as for Flanders. With a blend of roots and blues, their music is simply irresistible.

Emma Mattucci has been involved in the rockabilly scene since she was a child. At home, instead of listening to the radio, she played records by Brenda Lee, Patsy Cline, Wanda Jackson, Elvis, and all the stars of the golden age of rock 'n' roll and the 1950s. After playing in several different bands, she launched her solo project in 2021 with the album "Mind and Heart." On stage, Emma captivates the audience with her vocals, acoustic guitar, and piano. As you might have guessed, a retro-inspired yet contemporary concert by a talented young artist awaits you.

"Belly Hole Freak's origins are rooted in the most rural, raw, and dirty blues.

An instinctive and visceral sound, enriched with different colors, rhythms and nuances, blending tones of boogie, rhythm and blues, country and bluegrass, combined with a blues with more hard rock accents. His live performances are imbued with boundless energy and a distinctly rock 'n' roll attitude.

Among his main influences are artists such as Howlin' Wolf, Captain Beefheart, Robert Johnson, Tom Waits, as well as groups like Cream, Allman Brothers, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Cactus and The Bluesbreakers, to name just a few.

Like an ebony Manneken Pis, Nerami fuses Malian blues with Belgian rock and roll. A bit like the Scheldt flowing into the Niger River, or vice versa...

Stax, Motown, Sun Records... these labels hold no secrets for JR, the Canadian adventurer! Always on the hunt for that killer vinyl that gets hips shaking on the dance floor.
