Skinny Bird performs the very finest eco-punk. With their homemade aesthetics made from cardboard boxes, the performance disguised as a concert is truly a recycled, holistic spectacle! Their songs and stories are taken directly from life and invite you to sing along and join in. Their songs rarely last longer than 30 seconds. Debora Gerber and Sarah Büchel stage them skillfully in punk style: if something goes wrong, it's part of the program! It looks amateurish, but it is - but with great professionalism.

The Reines' concert program includes songs from their current album Scissor*hood, performative numbers and typographic projections from their in-house video kitchen. They tailor the world for themselves! Scissors stand for skill and zest for action, for independent, self-determined work and life. Scissors are needed for this, because they are the tools for making things yourself. Scissor*hood means sisterhood with scissors and scissor*hood means doing things together and knowing how.

With Big Hug, the Swiss rap icon BIG ZIS is releasing a collaborative music project. Building on the previous album «B:I:G - Bitte in Gross» (2024), a new, independent but collaborative work was created in close collaboration with over 23 artists from different generations and scenes. Retrospective and visionary, the album combines rap, pop, punk, doom metal and even noise, breaking down any genre boundaries and thus making visible a polyphonic, resistant network of formative Tinfas* of the Swiss music scene. The DIY of BIG ZIS is contrasted with the Do-it-Together (DIT) of the Future. New forms of a resistant but pluralistic language for Swiss music will be tested. With orchestras and icons such as Radon, Les Reines Prochaines, Eto*, Fatima Moumouni, Ester Poly, Jessica Jurassica (and many more), the Moods stage will be stormed. It's Takeover Time, It's BIG HUG Time!

Zurich rapper Big Zis has been shaking up the male-dominated Swiss rap game since the late 90s with her clever lyrics, funny punchlines and provocative attitude. She has recorded several albums, made an award-winning music video, performed on pretty much every Swiss stage from antifademo to high culture institutions and won the 2020 Swiss Music Prize and the 2021 Zurich Art Prize. Musically, she combines hip-hop with jazz, punk and improvisation in an eloquent yet danceable rebellion against long-outdated social norms and the patriarchal order, delivering an urgent, clever, humorous and provocative work that is unique in the Swiss music landscape.
