Always on time, the musical wave that has been wowing Athens since 2005, emerged this year as well.
For the 13th year in a row, Schoolwave Festival embraced 24 school and university bands, in the early days of July. This year’s meeting point was the imposing Vrahon Theater in the municipality of Vyronas, during the weekend of 6th , 7th and 8th of July.
Every young band, dreams of being able to express itself and communicate with the audience, which is exactly what happened this year too, as the Schoolwave Festival is one of music but also of bridging any differences. A big stage, professional sound and lights and an audience that never stopped dancing, even when the rain came falling down, were the key ingredients of the weekend.
The Young Journalists of the Network of Children’s Rights were there on the first day, enjoying the music, taking pictures but also interviewing the young musicians.
It all started with Over 9000, a skate punk band from Piraeus. Next the Young Journalists got to talk with the Athenian rap and hip-hop duo, Mistirios Tipos and Thlimmenos. Last but not least Gis Madiam, a girl band from Serres, shared with the Young Journalists their love of traditional music.
You can hear the whole interviews and find out what the Young Journalists talked about with the bands on Dandelion Radio, on the show dedicated to Schoolwave Festival.
