Rock
True indie rock. Sometimes poppy, sometimes grungy, with fluctuating vocals and moods and audible influences from Nick Cave and Nirvana to Wolf Alice, all produced in style: a true joy. But then, all of a sudden, distortion and lo-fi effects descend and everything is turned on its head with an oomph, and shortly afterwards spoken word returns again. Gretel Hänlyn produces versatile, contemporary songs that are unexpected, packed with emotion and all-encompassing. This style has earned the 20-year-old from London praise from music journalists and festival bookers alike. Following her summer tour – including at Green Man and Pitchfork Paris – she will be heading to Switzerland for the first time. And it won't be the last.
