Estonia’s 2024 Eurovision representatives, Puuluup, are coming to G Livelab!
Combining the traditional Estonian bowed lyre (known in Estonia as the Hiiu kannel) with electronics, Puuluup explores the space between tradition and contemporary musical styles, flirting with world music, underground sounds and pop. The duo routes the vibrations of the horsehair strings through effects pedals and a looper, experimenting with alternative playing techniques and sound-producing possibilities. The instrument’s soft, rustling tones blend with electronically amplified echoes, taps, creaks and crackles.
At times, their music pulses with danceable rhythms; at others, it creates a cinematic, dark atmosphere that transports listeners into the homes of the ancient talharpa players of Vormsi Island, carrying their musical legacy into the present. Their repertoire features original compositions steeped in tradition, references to punk classics, and romantic neozombiepostfolk with an educational twist.
Cloakroom fee 3 € included in the ticket price.
