The countdown is on – less than a month left until Echowaves Festival unleashes its musical capabilities to the Georgian audience. Its massive stages are starting to take form and organizers are actively preparing for the festival, which will take place on 23-26 August with up to 150 artists performing on 4 stages.

Echowaves recently announced the line-up of Taiyō stage. This will be the first occasion that Taiyō will be present during the festival. Taiyō Stage will be entirely constructed of bamboo. The Bamboo plant is closely linked with the Japanese culture. Taiyo’s concept is to be associated with the Japanese culture, specifically the Sun culture and the stage will unite artists who will perform for the audience together with the sunrise. Taiyō differs from other stages in the course of the day and will take place from 6 am to 10 pm. The music will be different and the melodies will be heard from artists visiting Georgia for the first time, including FOALS, NU, Dominik Eulberg Henry Saiz, Matthew Dekay and Ishome.
