TRAILERPARK is a festival on a mission. It is determined to combine extraordinary collective experience, radical expressions, conceptual impressions, social capital and co-creation with sustainability and good business practice.

Not only is TRAILERPARK FESTVAL an attraction for the thousands of guests who come to have their senses empowered – it is also a big attraction for both the artists who attend as well as the non-profit and commercial organizations who are involved and gets exceptional exposure to a much sought-after crowd.

Creating a successful festival is quite a challenge with many aspects to consider, both artistically and financially. To achieve this, ArtRebels digs deep into the heart and soul of their organization and does what it does best: Unite common interests into a creative solution for the benefit of everyone involved. To allow TRAILERPARK to blossom and become a meaningful and spectacular space for social interaction we seek out artist, musicians, volunteers and organizations that are relevant and appropriate as participants in the creation of a festival with a big heart, where all proceeds go to the non-profit organization HeartRebels.

The Kissaway Trail

Since The Kissaway Trail released their debut album in 2007 on English label Bella Union things have been going really fast, and this year they released their second album ”Sleep Mountain”. Both albums have been recieved very well, espe-cially internationally; “a savagely beautiful noise” (NME), “the debut album of the year so far” (The Independent) “mesmerising” (The Guardian), “an absolute revelation” (The Fly), “phenomenal” (Rock Sound).

For the past years The Kissaway Trail has been touring all over the world, in fact they are currently the Danish band who has played the most international concerts pr. year! SXSW, Hyde Park, support for The National, Sigur Ros, The Temper Trap and Interpol speaks for itself, and we are very happy to have them at TRAILERPARK FESTIVAL.

Sleep Party People

With his piano, guitar, an old drum machine and effect machines, Brian Batz escapes from the worries of everyday life into his slightly tilted universe of mysticism and dreams. This year in January the debut album of Sleep Party People hit the shelves, and with a music video directed by Tracy Maurice (who has previously directed for such prominent acts like Arcade Fire and Final Fantasy) and truly amazing live shows the future looks more than bright for Brian Batz & co.

Raz Ohara & Eim Ick

Raz Ohara is another Danish gem reaching (for) the stars outside the borders of Denmark. Residing in Berlin sinde 1994, Raz has released music on labels like Ellen Allien’s Bpitch Control, Kitty-Yo and Shitkatapult and has been working with artists like Apparat and his very own The Odd Orchestra. His music combines elements of soul, hiphop, electro and tech house, and at TRAILERPARK FESTIVAL Raz Ohara will perform live and solo. This is one of his rare performances in Denmark – one not to miss!

Eim Ick’s future definitely also looks bright. Young, Copenhagen-based producer Nick Eriksen creates musical landscapes combining minimal techno and deep, colorful juggling tricks. He cuts up samples and put them back together in a truly original and spellbinding way, leading your thoughts to artists like The Field and Pantha Du Prince. Debut release coming up on spanish label Hivern Discs – watch this guy closely.
