The Basecamp, 3rd Floor South Wing, Sri Pentas, 3,Persiaran Bandar Utama, 47800 PJ, SelangorIs it possible for a family-friendly festival to rival big name fests aimed at party crowds? In the case of Joyland Festival, we can attest that it is!
Frontwoman Elda Suryani’s dynamic stage persona, which is both whacky and cute, really sets them apart from the other bands we saw at Joyland. Some would call them the Indonesian Sugarcubes, but comparisons to Björk’s old band doesn’t do them justice as Stars & Rabbit are in a league of their own.Day 1 ended with a killer set by Shintaro Sakamoto. Even before he took the stage, several artistes playing that day gave shoutouts to him during their sets.
It was sing-along galore with the duo belting out hits like ‘I’d Rather Dance With You’, ‘Mrs Cold’, ‘Love Is A Lonely Thing’, and ‘Fever’. The guys even paid tribute to Indonesian band White Shoes & The Couples Company with a short cover of one of their songs.Another highlight of Day 2, Ali is an Indonesian psych rock band that sounds like a Middle Eastern Khruangbin. Although it started to rain, many stayed behind to catch their groovy infectious tunes.
