Reborn Open Air Festival 2026

Eivør is pure magic on and off stage. Her warmth, genuineness, and musical mastery exude from her with an ease that tells us she sings and storytells just as easily as she breathes. The venue was beautiful, although a slightly clearer schedule for the evening would have been appreciated. When a audience members know what they are waiting for, and for how long, it is a much easier wait. The album signing after the show was wonderful and welcoming, and overall it was one of the best nights of my life full of magic and music in a special and atmospheric venue. I'd been waiting years to see Eivør perform live!

Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft or DAF as they are known globally is an industrial electropunk band with real attitude. Their sound is synth-heavy and so wonderfully eighties it’s the ultimate form of TBT. Their name, which translates to German-American friendship, is taken from German propaganda pre the fall of the Berlin wall and is used ironically.

Similarly, many of their songs play ironically with political figures, propaganda phrases and quotes. The band’s risqué songs such as “Der Mussolini” have caused offence among German society with lyrics that made the dictator the face of a whimsical dance. This metaphorical middle finger in the face of society is what punk is all about, though, and explains the band’s large following.

At DAF’s current set of concerts, the band is giving fans the chance to relive old favourites from their back catalogue. Expect “Der Mussolini” to be played a couple of times as well as old favourites such as “Verschwende Deine Jugend” and “Der Räuber und der Prinz.” Fans of the band will be reminiscing non-stop throughout the night and I’m certain that any newcomers will leave as brand new fans.
