BRECHTJE + Maresa
Simplon UP
Electronic indie & bedroom pop
BRECHTJE is a singer, producer, and interdisciplinary creator from Groningen. She creates music in which grief, longing, fear, and hope are allowed to coexist, without judgment. Her music falls within electronic indie with hints of trance, and is sometimes somewhat acoustic.
For BRECHTJE, there is a clear connection between sound and image. A sound can say just as much as a melody, and a color can feel like a chord. You hear this way of perceiving the world reflected in her music and also see it in her work as a live painter at Madame & Madame.
Her performances feel dreamy and pulsating. Live, BRECHTJE invites her audience to step into that world. A place that is detached from everyday reality, where nothing needs to be numbed and every emotion is welcome, so that it ultimately feels relieving.
Maresa is an emerging artist from Groningen. With her dreamy indie-bedroompop, it feels like you are having conversations with someone late at night, sharing things that are usually left unsaid. Writing about friendship, love, heartbreak, and the quiet chaos of growing up, she invites listeners into a world that feels both deeply personal and comfortingly familiar.
“Born to be a lovergirl, forced to write heartbreak songs.”
