From//october + S!X Appeal
Simplon UP:
Lo-fi fueled escapism & bluesrock
From//October is the brainchild of songwriter and producer Dion Tiktak. From//October offers an escape from the harsh realities of everyday life, inviting you into your own world. Taking you on a nostalgic journey through childhood memories, dreamlike landscapes and love, this lo-fi indie rock project whispers its lyrics to you, yet awakens with subtle shoegazy wake-up calls: never quite letting you drift too far. Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of artists, including Beach Fossils, From//October creates a sonic journey that brings you back to the sounds of the 00s.
S!x Appeal is a six-piece blues/rock band, forged in the fires of late-night jam sessions and a shared passion for playing together. International but founded in Groningen, their place in the world is yet to be decided.
At the start of their writing process, they aim to impress and delight with their music. On stage, S!x Appeal captures a raw, high-energy sound where blues meets rock, blending in funk and whatever else feels right along the way.
The band is a familiar face at the monthly jam sessions at Apex Boulders; a fitting setting, as they are climbing their way through Groningen’s live scene. Now, they take things UP!
