SUn Byrd

Coming out of Oslo’s vibrant scene, Sūn Byrd brings a fresh, sun‑soaked take on modern soul, deeply rooted in the sounds of the 60s and 70s. The seven‑piece band — Johan Helland on vocals, Audun Haave Reknes on keys, Bård Berg on drums, Markus Hafsund Gundersen on bass, Jørgen Kasbo on guitar, Lyder Røed on trumpet and Erlend Vangen Kongtorp on sax – writes, sings and shapes its own sound as a collective, not just a frontperson with a band behind.

Their 2024 self‑titled debut already crossed 100,000 streams with the single “Half the Truth,” and they’ve built a reputation across more than 200 shows in Oslo. With a warm, groove‑driven mix of classic soul and contemporary energy, Sūn Byrd is ready to step beyond Norway’s borders and bring that tight, live‑wire feel to a wider audience.

the jazzy boys

The Jazzy Boys are a seven‑piece jazz band from Luxembourg, bursting with energy, rhythm and loud, joyful playing. Made up of two trumpets, a saxophone, a trombone, a vibraphone and two percussionists, they perform almost entirely original music, written by the band themselves, like the catchy “Jazz Lighter”.

They met as students at Lycée Michel‑Rodange, formed the band in 2025, and have been bringing their upbeat, heartfelt sound to concerts, festivals and private events ever since. When they play, they want you to feel the swing, the groove and the pure happiness of jazz, and to know that this is a band that’s just getting started.
