Side Effects II Festival | 18 & 19.03.23 @ Gagarin 205
The Side Effects II Festival returns this year to Gagarin 205. Over the two days of 18 & 19 March 2023 we're expecting to catch 10 bands on stage!

21 years is nothing to sneeze at… Especially for an independent record shop/mailorder based in Exarcheia, which gradually also became a record label and distributor for the cream of the crop of global underground rock. Riding on "self-managed" productions and with psychedelia as its magic ingredient, it has hosted every manifestation of it, from every corner of the planet, across more than 100 releases and just as many labels it distributes – among them a decent number of Greek bands who found an outlet on the international scene. That's roughly how Sound Effect Records is organizing at Gagarin 205 the Side Effects II Festival, with the participation of 10 bands.
