Per la prima volta in Italia la leggendaria band scozzese!
KAISERS (Scozia)
Ci sono volute 27 edizioni, ma alla fine anche i Kaisers saranno dei nostri. Ai veterani scozzesi del RnR-Beat, 25 anni di carriera e una ventina di dischi alle spalle, la vetrina del nostro Festival spettava di diritto. Per chi ama il surf più sporco, l'etica e l'estetica dei primi sixties, quello coi Kaisers è un appuntamento da non perdere. Perchè le radici del Festival è lì che affondano, in quel mondo lontano nel tempo ma ben saldo al centro dei nostri cuori. Anche per questo, lasciarsi travolgere dal suono dei Kaisers sarà ancora più bello: perchè la tradizione, quando assume queste forme, va celebrata senza freni. La storia ce lo impone.
