LÖWENZAHNHONIGwww.instagram.com/lowenzahnhonig

Somewhere between psychedelic daydream and Sunday morning reality lives Löwenzahnhonig — a band as tender and unpredictable as their name suggests. Formed on a whim in Zürich in late 2021, the trio of Fai Baba, Long Tall Jefferson and Paul Märki (ex-Black Sea Dahu) never meant to start a band. But when three musicians who’ve played hundreds of shows and made many albums come together, songs happen. Fast.

Their second album Kirschblütenboogie (2025) follows their acclaimed debut — a lovingly loose, subtly crafted collection of instrumental tunes that feel like a warm breeze through strange weather. The music drifts between Khruangbin's mellow psych-funk, Hermanos Gutiérrez’ desert blues, and the cinematic elegance of Connan Mockasin or Mac Demarco.

Unhurried and emotionally tuned, Löwenzahnhonig’s music seems to do nothing — until you notice everything has changed. With no lyrics, the songs speak in texture, tone, and tiny shifts: spare, slow-burning, deeply human.

Call it instrumental folk, psychedelic minimalism, or slowcore for soft hearts. It pairs well with early train rides, late-night pasta, slow dancing in the kitchen, existential dread — and is also known to calm kids, dogs, and distracted minds.

THE KING CHAMELEONwww.instagram.com/thekingchameleon_98

Born as a lofi beats project, amassing over 5 million streams worldwide, and now a jazz fusion four piece, The King Chameleon is an ever evolving musical endeavour. Over the past year the group have developed their own brand of cosmic jazz, embellished with a range of influences from disco and house, to samba and funk. Boasting a repertoire of dynamic originals and playing styles, the group seek to create and perform music that takes their listeners on journeys through highly technical fusion sections to catchy and melodic breakdowns. Dance the night away and lose yourself to the psychedelic sounds of this exciting bristol based band!
