Simone Moreno
Brazilian singer Simone Moreno is back with the album Planetas (Soul Dog Records)
– a journey into the sun and around the world in a swirling, danceable orbit. It features
afrobrazilian rhythms, pop, reggae and samba soul mixed with Nordic melodies and aims
just at one target: a constant, irresistible groove!
Simone Moreno came to Sweden in 2001 from Salvador, after four albums in Brazil,
where she is a well-known singer: in Rio where she sung the samba and in Bahia, where
she was a famed afro pop queen in the beginning of her career. She has performed in
the Swedish Melodie Grand Prix, performed at the Polar Music Prize (celebrating winner
Gilberto Gil) and won the prestigious Manifest Prize.
Simone is also known to the house music crowd, for collaborations with producers/artists
such as Rasmus Faber, SUMO and Tiger Stripes, and she has sung on various albums,
ranging from children’s songs to choir projects. Simone Moreno is radiant and charismatic
stage performer, and has toured extensively all over the world.

Sirqus Alfon
Sirqus Alfon is a bustling and joyous feast for the senses and a musical phenomenon in
the disguise of a cover band. Years of experimenting have taken Sirqus Alfon to a unique
position in participatory performance using modern technology and visual effects. Sirqus
Alfon won the Audience Prize at the Berlin Lacht International Street Festival, they took
the Edinburgh Fringe Festival by storm with 21 shows, full houses and rave reviews and
they have performed all over the world with their interactive and humorous shows.
Sirqus Alfon is the story of a band that started out on the streets and ended up on the big
stages. Utilizing their eccentric personalities as a starting point for drama and physical
tension, these performers weave an infectious spell of unbridled insanity into the crowd.
60 minutes of overcharged and chaotic adventure with technical solutions that you have
never seen on the stage before makes Sirqus Alfon a unique experience. Nobody can sit
still and nobody can be unaffected by their tremendous love for the audience.
