at 8 p.m. Hugo Cajan & Todellisuus
Hugo Cajan & Reality is a four-piece indie rock band whose mystical stage charisma has shaken rock clubs since 2020. Their sound has soul and danger: the flow of the ‘60s, the precision of the ‘70s, the creative madness of the ‘80s, the angst of the ‘90s and the life that has survived in the 2000s. They are songs about freedom and the weirdness of being human.
