Eevee (NL)

When we warned you that AMFest wanted to break the mold, we were especially talking about ourselves, about the cages we self-trapped ourselves into when it comes to this "instrumental music" thing. From Holland, Eevee is a beatmaker whose followers on social media is growing non-stop.  She produces new music every now and then and her ... + Info

Jo Quail (UK)

Last year Marina Herlop gave us an example of how quickly experimental neoclassical music is growing in Europe. And we love it! That’s why we wanted Jo Quail to join AMFest this year – she is a worldwide-recognized cello player that will perform for the first time ever in Spain. When we found out about her, thanks to the album ‘Five ... + Info

Lisa Morgenstern (GER)

Lisa Morgenstern is a German / Bulgarian pianist, singer and composer. Scheduled for release in late 2018, Chameleon finds her taking dramatic strides to expand her range, matching her far-sighted approach to both synths and piano with her background in classical music. Recorded in collaboration with Berlin based, Argentinian producer and ... + Info

Playback Maracas (BCN)

Last year, due to an unfortunate misunderstanding with the venue, they had to cut their set before finishing it. Right there and then, we swore to ourselves that they would be the first confirmed band of 2018. It hasn’t been easy, but nothing is impossible when both parts want the same thing! We love having fun and Playback Maracas are ... + Info

Blood Quartet (BCN)

Blood Quartet was born in 2015 in Barcelona, taking the no wave towards free jazz, muddy rock, twisted blues and landscapes that could well fit a soundtrack. Improvisation and changes of structure are the trademarks of this quartet and its outcome is a tremendous psychotropic "chiaroscuro". They will open AMFest 2018 and their name will ... + Info

Thermic Boogie (BCN)

We have seen them touring Europe in countries that love risk and allow crazy volumes. Well deserved, as Thermic Boogie are one of the most interesting proposals we have seen recently in Barcelona. Stoner, rock, noise and a tremendous wall of sound (wanna bet how many amps and cabs they will bring with them this time?) are the trademarks ... + Info

Sofa (EUS)

From Zarautz/Zumaia, near San Sebastián, this three-piece band shows that math-rock has gone far and that AMFest can't stop giving space to a genre that has always had lots of space in our festival. Their album "II" brings to us a band that's constantly evolving, complex structures, space for dancing and surprising sounds. We have seen ... + Info

La Son (BCN)

Created by the genius mind of  Sergio Pardo (previously in The Last 3 Lines), La Son is a 4-piece instrumental band where music, lights, and visuals go hand in hand. This show is a tribute to monsters of classic horror movies and their music brings us to the sound of good old soundtracks, together with visuals that will stun us all. The ... + Info

Jaime L. Pantaleón (BCN)

He doesn't need any introduction. He will perform at AMFest for the first time, after going on stage with Cuzo in 2013 and Gambardella in 2016. His new album, "E.N.T.E.", released by Long Live Records shows us the most electronic and experimental side of an artist without whom we couldn't imagine the scene in Barcelona. + Info

Ralp (BCN)

The day we saw him at Modular Day 2017 in Barcelona he ripped us to shreds.  Experimental, electronic, modular synths and science-fiction enthusiast, he played a half-hour set that brought back feelings that we thought had left our bodies. That was one of the reasons that made us invite our friends of Befaco to curate part of the ... + Info
