Al vele malen waren ze te gast bij Nirwana, de mannen van Agitator. Eind 1999 werd de band opgericht door vijf bekenden uit de omgeving Deurne. Dit jaar vieren ze hun 20-jarig jubileum en Nirwana viert met hen mee, zowel zaterdag 4 mei als op ’t Tuinfeest in augustus.<\/p>\n
In de rijke geschiedenis van Agitator passeerden festivals zoals Paaspop, Festyland, Bospop, Nirwana Tuinfeest, Monster of Mariaheide en het Eurosjopper-festival.<\/p>\n
Een recensie van Agitator op Nirwana Tuinfeest 2015: \u201cDit jaar geen start met een gezapig beginnend regionaal bandje maar een band die er meteen vol in ging. Tijdens de energieke pompende live-show baanden de twee rappers zich een weg door de harde strakke groove die de band de tent inblies. De beste start in 40 jaar.\u201c<\/p>\n
Naast Agitator maakt Windup Space de avond compleet. Windup Space is terug en raakt de gevoelige snaar met melancholische, extreem dynamische rockmuziek. Ze schakelen razendsnel tussen fragiel verdriet en woedende noise. Ge\u00efnspireerd door emobands als Brand New, Basement en Black Foxxes met een knipoog naar 90\u2019s grunge. Op vrijdag 22 maart presenteerden ze hun nieuwe plaat \u2018Shelter\u2019. In acht nummers opent de band met ontwapenende eerlijkheid een boekje over thema\u2019s als depressie, twijfel en eenzaamheid. Live staan de mannen bekend om hun intense en aangrijpende optredens, waarin ze vol overgave alle demonen van het lijf schreeuwen.<\/p>\n
De deuren gaan op zaterdag 4 mei om 20.00 uur open.
\nDe entree bedraagt \u20ac 5.<\/p>\n
