Grimm Grimm
London-based singer-songwriter experimentalist Koichi Yamanoha has been operating under the alias of Grimm Grimm since 2013. The project is an outlet for his fragile, haunted, otherworldly forays into baroque folk, uneasy easy listening, futurist lyricism, and electroacoustic oddities with foggy melancholia.

Sarmen Almond
Mexican musician and voice performer from Mexico. Intermedia artist and voice teacher trained in the Roy Hart tradition. Sarmen uses the voice and its relationship with electronic media to create compositions and decomposition of the personality on stage. She?s constantly chasing a quest of the infinite vocal possibilities that the human body utters as an instrument as well as the reflection of these sounds in physical and imaginary spaces. Almond makes use of resources of free improvisation, extended vocal techniques, programming, and bodywork.
