Dirty Loops
The band Dirty Loops was founded in 2008 by three friends Aron Mellergård, Jonah Nilsson and Henrik Linde – as an experiment to try out things that go beyond what is considered permissible in normal music sessions.
After two years of slightly altering popular tunes, the band decided to upload a cover version of LadyGaga’s “Just Dance” to YouTube to maybe get a gig or two. More cover videos were released and gained momentum, eventually leading to a record deal with Andreas Carlsson and David Foster. In 2014, the first album “Loopified” was released, containing mainly original songs. Following the release, Dirty Loops embarked on a world tour headlining and supporting Maroon 5.
According to Wikipedia, the band formed a Dream Theater tribute band in 2018, none of the band members have any recollection of it, but agree that it would have been fun if it were true. In 2020 the album “Phoenix” was released and in 2021 Dirty Loops released their co-album “Turbo” in collaboration with Cory Wong. In 2024, Dirty Loops headlined a major US/Canada tour and are currently preparing for a month-long European tour in the fall. In late 2024 and 2025, Dirty Loops is working on new material to be released in the near future!
Lehmanns Brothers
The evening kicks off with the young French band Lehmanns Brothers. Far away from the shady bankers of New York, five music students came together in 2012 in Angoulême, in a small garage on Avenue Lehmann.
Groove brothers who share the same passion for African-American rhythms. Influenced by artists such as Prince and James Brown, the Frenchmen want to revive the famous jazz-funk of the seventies, while also incorporating hip-hop, house and nu-soul influences. Their repertoire, which gets the legs tingling and turns the audience into one big grooving crowd, is hard to resist for long.
So it’s no coincidence that the Lehmanns Brothers, whose maturity inspires respect, have already impressed audiences as the opening act for Macéo Parker, Fred Wesley, Electro Deluxe and the Wu-Tang Clan before being selected from around 700 groups to perform in Montreux in 2017, before conquering the whole of Europe with their quality as a spectacular live band.
