To kick things off, and celebrate the launch of Quest Festival 2017’s ticket sales, the organizers will bring folk-pop band “Stars and Rabbit” of Indonesia to the Hanoi Rock City, 27 To Ngoc Van Street, Tay Ho District, Hanoi for the very first time, proudly supported by local artists Dr Peacock and Empty Spaces.
Indonesia’s Stars and Rabbit are at the forefront of a new generation of talented artists from the creative hotspot of Yogyakarta.
Lead singer Elda Suryani’s incredibly unique vocals conjures memories of gifted female vocalists such as Björk and Lamb’s Lou Rhodes, while their ethereal dream-pop style has drawn comparisons with bands as diverse as First Aid Kit to Emiliana Torrini.
The band had a breakout year in 2016, with an inaugural European tour and taking first place in the Toronto Arthouse Film Festival for Best Underground Music Video.
Stars and Rabbits will be exhilarating audiences across their native Indonesia before taking their show on the road where they’ll be performing in Japan, Malaysia and for one night only in Hanoi.
