Bellrope to play the 20th anniversary of Exile On Mainstream at Roadburn 2019
Exile on Mainstream Records is celebrating twenty years of existence with us at Roadburn 2019. The iconic label has released almost 90 records over the past two decades after starting out with modest plans to release friends’ music and see where it went. Well, it went well!
The label’s history is somewhat entwined with our own; in fact they celebrated their 15th birthday with us too! We guess we make good cake! Long term Roadburners will no doubt have rattled a few crates alongside label head honcho, Andreas Kohl, who is a regular face in the merch area of Roadburn.
We’re delighted to be hosting a showcase for one of Europe’s most beloved underground labels. Exile on Mainstream will commandeer the Hall of Fame on Saturday, April 13.
Andreas: “Bellrope are also no unkowns to the Roadburn punters – the band’s predecessor Black Shape Of Nexus played Roadburn in 2008 and this particular set still ranges among the most intense performances I’ve seen in Tilburg.”
