Line-up De Drie Gezusters - Q-Factory presents: Secret Stage ESNS 2025

You could call it psychedelic rock. Or maybe call it spacerock. Postrock. You could call it experimental rock, minimal even, or sometimes jazz. Yes, it’s hard to pinpoint where exactly the instrumental sextet WTRVLD stands within the ever expanding sonic fields of modern guitar driven rock. WTRVLD do like to jam it out. From soothing softness to soaring sculptures of sound, twinkling mathy guitar textures to tight dance grooves, repetitive mimalisms to jazz-inspired soloing, and from rapidly evolving strangeness to majestic anthems, the band likes to do it all. Ever-changing, always different, all in the moment but always relentless and boundary pushing, either musically or physically.

Hailing from Cork, Ireland, this dynamic six-piece collective brings a genre-spanning showcase of original music to Eurosonic. Blending the storytelling of folk, the soulfulness of ballads, and the energy of pop-rock, their set highlights diverse songwriting and captivating performances.

With each member contributing unique styles—Rían Crowley, Caolán Ledwidge, Skye Darrer-Murphy, Molly Fawl, Finn Fletcher-White, and Calvin Bell—the group creates a rich tapestry of sound. Their performance promises heartfelt lyrics, lush harmonies, and an authentic connection that transcends genres.

Liv Leah is een Nederlandstalige singer songwriter. Samen met haar gitarist Boaz van Dijk spelen zij nummers waarin breekbaarheid en diepgang centraal staan. De natuur, liefde, sterren, en een zoektocht naar geluk zijn belangrijke thema’s. Inspiratiebronnen zijn S10, Meau, Michael Prins en Birdy.

Where dreams collided with amplifiers and hope resonated in every chord, NOZEMS was born. This young and spirited rock band is the embodiment of raw, unbridled passion for music, a group of friends brought together by a shared love for a certain sound.

Popzangeres en songwriter ROOS-MARIE maakt dansbare songs waarin ze haar ervaringen als jonge vrouw deelt. Met haar donkere stemgeluid brengt ze ritmische melodieën met sassy lyrics tot leven. In een intieme akoestische setting onder begeleiding van Boaz van Dijk, of met haar funky band. ROOS-MARIE haalt inspiratie uit artiesten als Dove Cameron en Noga Erez, maar experimenteert ook met invloeden van haar liefde voor jazz- en blues-muzikanten als Ella Fitzgerald en Joe Bonamassa.

Resonance is a four-member alternative rock band from Almere formed in 2018.
The four members consist of lead vocalist, Daniel de Zwart; lead guitarist, Ricardo Maldonado Sevilla; bassist, Jip de Vries; and drummer, Sam Deckers.
Their versatile music draws influences from artists such as Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, and Nothing but Thieves.
From roaring guitars to melancholic ballads, this band manages to captivate the audience in a fantastic show full of energy and musicality.

Chemical Clouds creates radio-friendly pop music inspired by bands like Nothing but Thieves and Arctic Monkeys. They are known for their catchy melodies, but also enjoy adding strong drums and explosive guitar solos. The band emerged in 2018 from the collaboration of singer and guitarist Jesse Bouwmeister and bass player Sjoerd Wolbert, soon joined by drummer Jeppe Haafs and rock guitarist Mees ten Vaarwerk. Each of the four band members brings their own unique musical background to the mix. They see themselves as four molecular elements whose diverse styles blend together in a ‘chemical cloud’ of sound. The spectacular new formation that results can be heard on their debut EP “Acid Free”.

Hey, let me introduce myself a bit. I am Tomas - music producer, songwriter and singer based in the Czech republic. I started experimenting with music back in 2007 and haven't let go since then. Music has always been part of my life somehow. After many unreleased demos (waiting to be completed and released in the near future, I hope) I am happy to release my first single Opposer and another two instrumental tracks soon, together as 3-track EP. I hope you'll like it.

After releasing an EP with my band Sigh Hollywhoo I realized I also wanted to do something on my own. I started to write my own material en play it at the local songwriter stage. People started to become excited and kept asking when I would release my solo work.
So now here we are.

The duo of Brett Roselle and Ryan Ronksley are reunited once again as they blend their unique talents to form broselle+naysh. Brett’s soulful vocals and mesmerizing acoustic guitar melodies are the heart of their sound, while the ambience of Ryan’s guitar melodies and production skills add depth and dimension to their music to create a chill fusion of electro-acoustic elements.

VOS is nieuwe Zeeuwse Indiepop waarin een balans wordt gezocht tussen prikkelende stadsnachten en eindeloze vergezichten. Rock 'n' Roll uit de polder en liedjes die soms een beetje boven de grond lijken te zweven.

Live:
René Geelhoed - vocals / keys / synth bass
Hubert Eggen - gitaar
Nienke Overmars - drums

Singer/guitarist/keyboardist Seb Sassenburg and drummer Tim de Jonge decide to form a band in 2020. Soon after, solo guitarist Gernardo Dorleijn and bassist Sem Jakobsen complete that band and they call themselves MEN. In the first period of their existence, they very successfully play a cover repertoire. Then they soon and wholeheartedly throw themselves into writing and playing their own songs. MEN creates their own rock style with catchy melodies and original lyrics. Melodious bass lines, pounding rhythms and screaming guitars are their trademark. Their energetic live act is enthusiastically received. Audiences everywhere are always pleasantly surprised that such a young, fresh band sounds so tight. MEN is also developing at a fast pace. In short: the men of MEN put on a smashing act that you absolutely can't miss!

Lifeblood is een band die bestaat uit vijf enthousiaste jongens: Daaf Beuse (zang en gitaar), Joris Leegwater (leadgitaar), Yordi Paul (basgitaar), Gijs Oliemans (toetsen en gitaar) en Stefan Emmelot (drums).

Lifeblood haalt zijn inspiratie uit grote namen binnen de rockgeschiedenis, zoals Pink Floyd, The Beatles en Pearl Jam, maar ook uit nieuwere bands als The Arctic Monkeys en Muse. Tot nu toe zijn er 2 singles, een EP en een videoclip uitgebracht. In 2022 won Lifeblood de Popprijs Amstelland en werd daarna uitgenodigd om drie nummers live te komen spelen op NPO Radio 1, in het programma ‘Dijkstra en Evenblij Ter Plekke’. De nummers van Lifeblood vallen allemaal binnen het rock-genre en zitten vol energie. De band speelt regelmatig op kleine festivals en poppodia in de regio Amstelland, zoals N201 Aalsmeer en P60 Amstelveen en heeft in Paradiso gestaan. Hun muziek zorgt gegarandeerd voor een energieke avond!

DE PLAAG
Stoute mix van electro pop, punk en hiphop
Sta klaar voor een muzikale Plaag – een stoute, explosieve mix van electro pop, hiphop en punk, die zich in razend tempo verspreidt over de Nederlandse muziekscene. En dat is niet zonder reden: De Plaag is geflipt, gedurfd en misschien zelfs een tikje arrogant, maar altijd verrassend. Deze spiksplinternieuwe supergroep uit Dordrecht laat een blijvende indruk achter op het podium.
Met ex-bandleden van Het Gezelschap, Scotch en Nova Novella in de rangen, is De Plaag een groep ervaren rotten die keer op keer weet hoe je een feestje tot op de grond afbreekt. Na een succesvol debuutjaar met shows op ESNS, Trailerfest, He.Leenfestival, Over de Top Festival en Dwarsliggerfestival, maakt de band zich klaar voor een nieuw hoogtepunt: in 2025 brengen ze hun debuutalbum “Voorspel” uit.

A dark Tuesday evening. In a warehouse that doubles as a metal workshop by day, instruments are set up and amps come to life. Meanwhile, stories unfold—tales of adventures with Joyfalds, Long Conversations, All Shall Be Well, and Port of Call. Together, these four bring over 100 years of stage experience to the table. Suddenly, the sharp cut of a guitar rips through the space, as Mart (vocals/guitar), Vincent (drums), Bastiaan (bass), and Edoardo (guitar) look ahead. New songs await, inspired by the likes of Sonic Youth, Unwound, The Notwist, and Biffy Clyro. New experiences beckon, because the stage never loses its thrill. With Subsister, a new chapter begins.

Each member brings a unique background—from indie to rock and beyond—which fuses into a sound that’s unmistakably their own. With a few demo tracks available on Bandcamp, the band is poised to make a mark on the music scene. Their songs pulse with emotion, energy, and authenticity. Whether it's an intimate gig at a local venue or a festival crowd, Subsister is always about creating a memorable experience. With relentless passion, they're ready to take the stage, one song at a time.
