Liam Grant (USA) Liam Grant integrates the neo-traditional country-blues-folk idiom with unexpected compositional and improvisational approaches. He uses the guitar as a narrative tool to create short symphonies and modal epics, also inspired by personal reflections and his relationship with the landscapes of New England.

Ondrej Zajac (SK) is one of the most active guitarists on the Central European avant-garde scene. The genre-defying musician plays solo, in the bands Banausoi and Data Koroptev, and composes music for short films and gallery exhibitions. He has performed all over Europe and Japan, and has been heard at festivals, in apartments, clubs, galleries, apple orchards, dilapidated buildings, city walls, a tram, a church, a mill, a nuclear shelter, phone booths and a botanical garden. Ondrej demonstrates his desire to explore new worlds by constantly denying everything he is connected to. His recordings have been released in England, Peru, Mexico and France, among others, and he has been praised by respected periodicals such as The Quietus and The Wire.
