Befawara er et Bergensbasert band satt sammen av musikere med bakgrunn fra Griegakademiet i Bergen og University of Cape Town i Sør Afrika. I musikken er improvisasjon og samspill i fokus, noe som skaper et utforskende, energisk og melodiøst lydbilde. Musikken er i konstant utvikling, og vi jobber med å frigjøre oss fra individuelle normer innen form, harmonikk og rollefordeling.

Ramasjang



The Norwegian band Ramasjang has developed a very distinctive sound where catchy melodies with several vocal harmonies meet hip-hop-inspired drums, indie-guitar and at times very heavy synth parts. In combination with vulnerable and honest lyrics, a concert with Ramasjang leaves you with “an intense feeling of euphoria”, according to Espen Drivenes (Made Management). Also worth noting is that the band’s lead vocalist and frontman has been described as a fully developed pop-star by Fredrik Saroea (Datarock). 

The band releases its third single on June 22nd - The Queen  has already been deemed a very catchy tune of international standard by esteemed music-figures in their hometown of Bergen. Their two previous singles, Call Me and Smile were listed as recommended by NRK Urørt and played on national radio-channel NRK P3. Their recorded live-performance of the song Steal on international concept Sofar Sounds quickly received great attention in social media. This has resulted in high expectations for the band. 

Germany

Previous releases and performances have led to positive ripple-effects, and Ramasjang has played concerts at the music-industry meeting “Blest”, Brann football stadium and as support for internationally recognized Choir of Young Believers, to mention a few. This autumn Ramasjang is ready to share their music with new audiences and places, and the band is already booked to play in Berlin in September. 

Ramasjang consists of:
Andreas Kvåle Myksvoll (vocals and guitar)
Magnus Jørgensen Mannes (bass, guitar and vocals)
Johannes Slåttli (synth and vocals)
Simon Kleppe Røskeland (drums)

Once upon a time three good friends met over a nice cup of tea. 
The tea tasted so good that they decided to make a band.
Then Claudia Cox said «Hi, girls, i have a great idea! I have this new tune we can try out.» 
And then the fairytale began... 

kvit skit spiller herlig skitten indie-pop-bluescountry-rock inspirert av gamle dager og nye tanker. Bandet som musikken er dynamisk og organisk, og uttrykket spenner fra akustiske sett med cajun og melodica, til klassisk rock-konstellasjoner med bass og trommer, orgel og flerfoldige gitarer. kvit skit består hovedsakelig av seks medlemmer, men inviterer gjerne med en venn eller fem når det skal swinge litt ekstra.
