Ino Rock festival 2018
I’m pleased to announce that I will be playing at this year’s Ino-Rock festival in Inowroclaw, Poland on August 25th. This year’s line-up is all Norwegian, including Gazpacho and Soup!
Airbag played the festival back in 2010. We had such a good time and it’s always a pleasure to visit and play in Poland.
See the official Ino-Rock website for details.
See you there!
