Lounar
is a spoken-word artist, musician, singer-songwriter and poet who grew up between her mother's grand piano and her father's contrabass. She prefers to express herself musically and goes jamming and freestyling through life. She is characterized by her rhythmic, jazzy guitar playing combined with beatbox and a soulful voice. She uses her loop station to create atmospheric compositions that take you to an unknown world and her improvisation capacity is surprising. Sources of inspiration are Bobby Mcferrin and Erykah Badu. She has performed at events such as the Liberation Festival, Worden Worden Zinnen and Noorderzon. She has played solo at Simplon and Grand Theatre in Groningen, Paard van Troje in The Hague and at the Tolhuistuin and De Parade in Amsterdam.
