In its eighteenth year, the Barezzi Festival arrives in Bologna with an exclusive preview, presenting one of the most interesting bands in Europe: Lankum.

Their latest album “False Lankum” (2024 – Rough Trade) has been acclaimed by international critics.

This ambitious and innovative Irish band reshapes folk tradition with shoegaze and drone performances, redefining its boundaries.

Their lyrics are deeply rooted in ancient Irish culture, exploring themes such as mythology, earthly existentialism, the relationship with the transcendent, and the sea, all framed within a psychedelic soundscape.

Their acoustic approach, combined with the experimental use of numerous electronic instruments, makes their live performances truly immersive and experiential.
