Joy Forever + Thatcher

In the organizer's words:

Joy Forever is a newly founded four-piece band from Hamburg that moves between post-punk and indie rock. They combine raw guitar sounds with unadulterated vocals and take their listeners on an introspective and emotional journey. Their lyrics deal with modern, cosmopolitan life and are characterized by sharp, critical observations and personal depth. Following the release of their debut EP "All You Need Is Joy" in fall 2024, the band toured their energetic live show across Germany and beyond, with stops in Zurich and Brighton, and supported international acts such as Bartees Strange and Neov. Their forthcoming second EP "Brand New Faces", recorded in Brighton with Theo Verney (English Teacher, Egyptian Blue), will be released in fall 2025 and marks a bolder, clearer chapter in their sound.

Thatcher marries the driving post-punk of the 80s and 90s with psychedelic krautrock interjections and brings in classic punk whenever necessary. Carried by their sound, somewhere between nostalgia, fear of the future and zeitgeist, they celebrate dynamic shows on stage in which intimacy and vulnerability alternate with resolute, noise-driven energy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-w5WFuwSno
