Soul Gazer (UK) + Temple Solaire (CH) & Joy Forever (DE)

Dirty guitars, hypnotic grooves, and raw emotion... Join the international extravaganza the greatest range of rock n roll Zurich has to offer.

Soul Gazer is raw, visceral, and pure rock n roll, with a howl that has to be heard to be believed. Thrust together under the hazy neon lights of the Reeperbahn a chance encounter between fellow roving Brits Ty Freeman & Joel Phillips has given spawn to a new rock n roll project so gloriously filthy and befitting of its sordid surroundings. Following on from a week long stint in Hamburg, that morphed into a lockdown enforced adventure of two years busking across Europe for Troubadour Freeman, he finally settled in Zürich and summoned Jakob Uhlenhopp to join the occult alongside long-time trusted demon Joe Smith from his native Liverpool.

Since their founding in 2015 in Zuerich, Temple Solaire have been commenting as an unifying project a lived passion for repetitive, hypnotic, psychedelic sound. The six-piece band draws it's ideas from the past as well as the present, trying to create a fresh sound experience that oscillates between velvety illusions, stroboscopic dreams, unfathomable, dark abysses and thick, colourful sound carpets. Each member of the band brings their various influences and broadly researched fundus to the table, allowing the sound to venture into ever new playgrounds and ultimately open itself up to further
definition.

Joy Forever, a freshly formed 4-piece band from Hamburg, flies somewhere between post-punk and indie-rock. Combining dirty guitars with dreamy synthesizers, they bring you on a deep introspective journey captivated with raw emotions and vibrant energy. For fans of bands such as Fontaines DC, Shame, IDLES or Beach Fossils.
