Three bandpool acts at the Southside Festival 2025
10. June 2025
Big stage for Popakademie talents: Three acts from the current band pool generations 26 and 27 are on the program this year at the Southside Festival - one of the largest and most renowned festivals in Germany.
Marlo Grosshardt - Loud, raw and politically direct, the Hamburg musician sings about growing up and the breaking points in society. Between poetic pop and raw energy, he creates songs that invite you to think and sing along in equal measure.Freude - Between driving drums, distorted guitars and gripping hooks, the Viennese trio creates a sound that effortlessly combines indie, rock and pop. Their songs deal with personal and political issues - raw, honest and close to the pulse of the times. On stage, the whole thing is discharged in pure energy.emi x - In her music, internet culture, dream worlds and hyperpop merge into a hypnotic synthesis of the arts. Between self-irony and seriousness, bubblegum melodies and ethereal soundscapes, she captures the attitude to life of a digital generation.Also performing at Southside: ok.danke.tschüss, the band led by Popakademie student Eva Sauter.The Southside Festival takes place from June 20-22 in Neuhausen ob Eck. The complete line-up can be found here. We are very happy about the strong presence of our Talents at one of the biggest festivals in Germany!
