Abacaxi

Double concert with Kalle Kalima & Tatu Rönkkö - Abacaxi have a sound with recognition value. However, the special thing about their performances is not only their music, but also the light show, which the band controls from the stage itself. 

Abaxaci is the Portuguese word for pineapple and so they are often described with the phrase "A heart filled with sweets and a shell of spines", which refers to the sweet fruit. However, it is not so easy to describe the music of the three musicians, because what you get to hear from Abacaxi is a wild mixture of electronic and rock elements. Julien Desprez, the founder of the music project, lives in Paris and has made his passion his profession. While at the beginning of his career he was mainly focused on jazz and rock, he now strives for rather freer forms of music. His trademark is a kind of tap dance, which he performs while stepping on his effect pedals to change the sound of his guitar. Whoever sits in the audience of Abacaxi is immersed in a world of light and sound, which may seem almost infinite.
