On Sunday, March 10, debutant progressive rock band Somewhere in the Sky will take us into the magical world of their first self-titled concept album. Companions are Moon Moth and Marva Von Theo who will confide their own dream stories in an unexpectedly exciting evening of musical revelations at PLYFA.
Somewhere in the Sky
Somewhere In The Sky, the new progressive rock band, present their first self-titled album live. An original concept album, which in a multi-faceted, musical theater way, deals with the instincts of the signs. It aspires to take listeners on a journey through the inspiring journey of the first man. Urged by his mother, the Moon Goddess, he goes through the transformations of the Four Elements to reach completion. A journey of self-awareness in a magical setting.
In music, lyrics and direction by Nikos Kassis and Giorgos Kalyvas, the band with an expanded seven-member composition, attempts to bring the listeners in contact with the artistic orchestrations of the album, making them participants in its unique world.
MOONMOTI
Moonmoth formed in 2022 and their music, full of strange dark sounds with emotional interludes, can be described as theatrical dark pop. They combine the acoustic sound of classical guitar with the electronic soundscapes of synths to create an ambient and dreamlike atmosphere. The lyricism of the double female vocals, in a primal harmony with the evocative minimal beats and the ritualistic harmonies of the guitar, seduce the listener to a sonic place of sacrifice and rebirth.
MARVA VON THEO
Dark and rhythmic, but at the same time introspective, dreamy and emotional, Marva Von Theo find their way through the darkness of darksynth music to bright electropop. They were formed in 2017 by Marva Voulgari (vocals, songwriting) and Teos Foinidis (synths, composition, production) and have released two albums (“Dream within a Dream” 2018, and “Afterglow” 2021) that stood out for their special aesthetic , their multi-dimensional, inventive compositions, expressive, captivating vocals and particularly melancholic lyrics over danceable beats.
Every live performance of Marva Von Theo is a unique, almost ritualistic experience for the listener who, after being immersed in their eerie, poetic atmospheres, finally emerges into the light dancing redemptively to the electronic pulses of their music.
They have appeared on several stages and festivals in Greece and abroad, most importantly the Release Athens Festival (opening act for Leftfield (UK), Stereo Nova (GR) and Boy Harsher (US)), Athens Music Week, TedEx, Athens Digital Arts Festival , Nocturnal Cultural Nights (DE), while they have opened the concerts of Trentemøller (DK), Motorama (RU), Molly Nillson (DE), Hooverphonic (BE).
This period finds Marva Von Theo working on new tracks for their upcoming 3rd album.
