BHAJAN BHOY – NL
Bhajan Bhoy is the project of Ajay Saggar (guitar, electronics, harmonium, tapes). Since his debut album came out in 2020, he has received unparalleled praise for his music from publications like Wire magazine, MOJO magazine, Uncut, etc., and received airplay from the USA (heavy rotation on WFMU and was also invited to do a session for them in 2023), UK (BBC Radio 6 Music, Steve Barker’s “On The Wire”, etc) to Australia (2SER) and New Zealand (bFM). His albums are now released by established and respected labels Cardinal Fuzz (UK) and Feeding Tube Records (USA).
Drawing from a deep well of psychedelia, Bhajan Bhoy further shifts the parameters of the genre with a beautiful and meditative set of tracks. The music reaches out to the stars in the same vein if Popol Vuh jammed with John Fahey, Terry Riley, and Robin Guthrie, to produce a beautiful soundscape in which the listener can sink into and float downstream.

MIND CRUSH (Kendraplex / Chelsea Bridge) – USA
Mind Crush is the improvisational sonic collaboration of Mallory Linehan (violin, vocals, electronics) and Kendra Calhoun (organ, keyboard, vocals, electronics).
Kendra Calhoun and Mallory Linehan work together to bring longform compositions to improvisation, with a unifying tone that mediates chaos and euphoria toward a manageable experience. An incredible live experience that draws comparisons to Terry Riley meets Spacemen 3. This is their debut European tour and you should not miss them. Kendraplex is also a DJ at the world’s greatest radio station…WFMU.
