In cooperation with the showcase festival "Sharpe", Nová Cvernovka brings the "Explore" format, where young interesting musical groups on the European scene will be presented on a regular basis. As part of the fifth event in this series, Pom Poko and Children will be introduced.
Pom Poko has accelerated through the music business space-time continuum and has in its first year as a band played shows at The Great Escape (UK), Roskilde (DK), and Øyafestivalen (NO), been held in high acclaim at BBC Radio 1, Line of Best Fit, NME and Norwegian radio NRKP3, and released two official singles. Sweet sing-song vocals are mixed with intense grooves, bouncy guitars, and absurd riffs, and make Pom Poko a feat to behold live. They released their second album, Cheater, to critical acclaim in 2021.
Children come from the dark alleys of Bratislava's DIY sewer to unleash their fast strike sets. The combination of minimalist fuzz riffs with hard bass without unnecessary soloing presents a garage dirty minimal with a visual oscillation of the 90s.
Admission is free for residents of Ukraine.
