The Rockhal presents at CarréRotondes, the 24-year-old psychedelic musician JACCO GARDNER. After taking Europe and the USA by storm and releasing two killer singles and his critically acclaimed full-length album “Cabinet of Curiosities”, Gardner returns with two new, exclusive tracks for Trouble in Mind Records, “The End Of August” and “Notus”.
It’s a very specific late 60’s aesthetics that the Dutch artist evokes on his debut album, “Cabinet of Curiosities”: the ornate, lushly orchestrated, psych-inflected soft rock or baroque pop of British groups such as Nirvana and the Zombies, and American bands such as the Millennium and Sagittarius.
JACCO GARDNER is definitely an emerging talent unafraid to follow his own unique path. Be sure not to miss his show at CarréRotondes. SEED TO TREE is a Luxembourgish band whose sound, especially live, has been compared to an array of acts: Fleet Foxes, Of Monsters and Men, Damien Rice, and even Mumford and Sons. It was back in 2009 that the “seed” of SEED TO TREE was planted when Benjamin and Georges began playing guitar and singing together.
2010 was the year of the band’s first gigs in bars and youth centres and they even blossomed by winning a local band contest ahead of about 12 other acts.
With growing buzz, the band became more serious in its live act and song-writing, performing bigger gigs in front of a more diverse public, including Luxembourg City’s “Fête de la musique”.
It all paid off, as the band received support and help in several areas including the recording of their first EP which was released in September 2012.
