Festival Day - four groupes, three of them for the first time in Luxembourg.
A Festival within the Festival: one night – four shows, featuring four popular current bands, three of them performing in Luxembourg for the first time.
This year’s Festival de Wiltz hosts a „Festival within the Festival“, presenting no less than four popular current bands live onstage at the amphitheatre on the same night. Three of them will perform in Luxembourg for the first time.
The show will be headlined by José González, the singer-songwriter with Argentinian roots prized for his distinctive guitar sound and his clear voice. His international career took off after several of his songs had been featured in TV series and movies (O.C., California, The secret life of Walter Mitty). His cover version of Heartbeats was not only used in a Sony commercial but also featured in the TV shows Scrubs and Bones. At the Festival de Wiltz González will present his latest album, “Vestiges & Claws”.
Leading up to the headliner, Brazilian singer, songwriter and pianist Dillon will play live at the amphitheatre. With her characteristic voice, somewhat reminiscent of Björk, accompanied by electronic beats and the delicate sound of the piano she performs songs of a melancholy beauty with expressive lyrics.
The Belgian duo Joy Wellboy will also make their Luxembourg premiere at the festival. Their complex sound structures, experimental beat arrangements and eclectic blend of R’n’B, trip hop, new wave and pop music elements merge into wonderful, refreshing songs.
The fourth show will feature the popular Luxembourg band Monophana. DJ and producer Philippe “Chook” Schirrer and singer-songwriter Claudine Muno create innovative sounds using sophisticated electronics.
