Roadburn has commissioned a special band debut for its 2019 edition: Molassess. Molasses spawned from the former members of The Devil’s Blood and Selim Lemouchi & His Enemies along with allies such as Marcel van der Vondervoort of Astrosoniq, Bob Hogenelst (Birth of Joy) and Matthijs Stronks (Donnerwetter). This new band carries the spirit of their previous bands, but in all new music, not a tribute act. This pretty exciting as this commision brings together are some of the most vital artists to ever grace this scene.
Roadburn’s artistic director Walter Hoeijmakers commented:
“Roadburn has always sought to push the boundaries of creativity and expression, and over the years I found kindred spirits in both Astrosoniq and The Devil’s Blood. In fact, I forged a strong friendship with individual members, who have either helped out with the festival, or been a huge inspiration. This led to hosting the first ever show from The Devil’s Blood in 2008 and Astrosoniq challenging the very notion of psychedelica at several editions of the festival. I also found solace through this lasting friendship when both Selim (Lemouchi, The Devil’s Blood) and Astrosoniq’s Bidi (van Drongelen) passed away – I strongly feel that we are bound together by the desire to maintain an open mind about life and creativity, while pushing the envelope as well – musically, artistically and spiritually.”
Molasses is a commissioned project made possible thanks to the continued support of Brabant C and City of Tilburg.
