Passionate singer and guitarist Anna Calvi, who packed our main hall to the rafters in 2014, is returning to Šiška. She’ll present her new album Hunter, the heavily anticipated visceral exploration of sexuality and gender roles and the successor to the albums that got her nominated for the prestigious Mercury Music Prize and BRIT Award.

After the exceptional success of last year’s urban activities day, we’re inviting you for an even better, bigger and Šiška-ier Šiška Open 2018, from the afternoon to the evening.

At our 9th birthday, MRFY, next in line to the throne of Slovenian rock, will unveil their heavily anticipated debut album for the first time. We’ll also celebrate with the premiere of the music documentary Band VS Brand, created as part of our Cultural Euro 2017 call.

One of the most intriguing regional acts right now, Croatian emo-macho group Svemirko, whose fresh sound and unforgettable concert performances swept up listeners and critics alike, is coming back to Ljubljana to present its heavily anticipated second album.

Garage rock ‘n’ roll legends The Sonics, whose ground-breaking grimy, razor sharp rock established them as one of the first punk bands in history and an unmistakeable influence on countless generations of musicians – from Bruce Springsteen and Nirvana to the White Stripes and Japandroids – in Slovenia for the first time!

God Is An Astronaut, one of the biggest names in instrumental post rock, who have packed our hall several times already, are coming back with a new audio-visual spectacle. The Irish band will present their latest, eighth, studio album Epitaph, a serious contender for album of the year according to Distorted Sound.

In October, we’ll welcome the rising young singer and guitarist Laurel, whose hypnotic intensity has mesmerised the British indie scene. Her original sound lies between Florence + The Machine and Anna Calvi, with her debut album to be released via a Ninja Tune subsidiary in August, undoubtedly as one of the hottest releases of the summer. And just a few months later, she’s coming to Šiška!
