Artemas
Festival Republic StageFridayTBA
Originally hailing from Oxford but now residing in London, 22 year old artist Artemas brings a refreshingly self-aware feeling to the sound of alt-pop. Across a handful of singles, his unique energy has already made an impressive impact; earning him a spot on this year’s BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend line up, and a burgeoning legion of die hard fans. Obsessed as a teen by the confessional stylings of Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Sublime, Artemas provides a contemporary update to their candid approach to lyricism; creating honest music about modern existence, while injecting an
infectious optimism into it.
