About Me

Looking for Russian-Balkan-Gypsy-Funky-Punk Underground Parties? Take the EasternXpress!EasternXpress is a new organisation in Uppsala and Stockholm. We promote eastern europe culture and subculture all year round via concerts, underground movie projections and non-conventional art projects. We try to help bands / DJs based in Sweden or coming from abroad to find places to play in Uppsala and Stockholm, in collaboration with several cafes (for the moment, Hijazz in Uppsala, KGB bar, Judy's and Södra Teatern in Stockholm).We also keep people informed about events related to eastern europe culture ongoing in Uppsala and Stockholm area - please tell us if we missed something !We are looking forward to create networks of clubs where bands can play in the scandinavia - that's the way to make the good music come to the north ! Why not the Copenhagen-Oslo-Stockholm-Helsinki tour, including many places in between ?
