Young Dreams
All the way from Norway, Young Dreams come from a city that’s often cloaked in darkness and bitter rains. Even so, their music imagines a place where the sun shines bright. Songs bordering on symphonies unveil hidden influences from Baroque to the Beach Boys, and more contemporary acts such as Grizzly Bear and Vampire Weekend. Their debut album Between Places unites these divergent influences and speaks of escaping the oppression of adolescence, dreary weather and the mundane.
MONSTER CAT
In 2011, MONSTER CAT released their debut EP <>, which reached listeners in over 198 countries. In a short few years, the Singapore-based band has been voted Artist Of The Week on MTV’s global indie music site; opened for UK livewire act the Noisettes, recorded with Steve Lillywhite (U2, The Killers, The Rolling Stones) and even earned a shoutout from industry guru Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Nine Inch Nails, Deftones).
MONSTER CAT has been invited to numerous festivals including SXSW, Culture Collide in Los Angeles and the Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg. They’ve also shared the stage with popular international acts like The Naked and Famous, Metronomy and The Jezabels. MONSTER CAT is fast gaining a reputation for their intense and emotional live shows.

两支不容错过的乐队！Young Dreams＋MONSTER CAT上海联合专场！
挪威的沙滩男孩－Young Dreams
尽管是来自挪威一个笼罩在黑暗和雨水里的城市，但是Young Dreams的音乐却依然有着如同春天阳光一般的感觉，传递着如同巴洛克音乐和The Beach Boys，或者更当前的乐队，如Grizzly Bears和Vampire Weekend一般的宏大气息。在乐队的首张专辑《Between Places》里，他们成功地把这些音乐影响融合到了作品里，并表现出了足以令乐迷脱离世俗生活和糟糕环境压迫的强大力量。
亚洲新生摇滚力量－MONSTER CAT
来自新加坡独立民谣摇滚乐队－MONSTER CAT继2011年出道以来，一直受到乐评人以及来自世界各地歌迷的青睐。他们曾上过MTV全球独立音乐榜、与知名制作人Steve Lillywhite （U2、The Killer、 The Rolling Stones）合作，甚至还受到业界知名人士Bob Ezrin（Pink Floyd、Nine Inch Nails、Deftones）的称赞… 当然这一切都不能说明MONSTER CAT作为亚洲新生摇滚力量的潜力。时髦的节拍、动感十足的吉他效果以及引人入胜的和声，才是他们最有说服力的武器！
