Jera On Air 2023 just announced the first names for the 29th edition of the festival in Ysselsteyn. Parkway Drive, Rancid, Meshuggah and The Ghost Inside are just a few of the more than thirty bands that have already been announced for next year. Also playing are Hatebreed, Sick of it All, The Amity Affliction, Fever 333, Motionless in White, Lorna Shore, Malevolence, Landmvrks, H2O, Rise of the Northstar, Stray From the Path, The Menzingers, Any Given Day and Polaris. Tickets are available now at www.jeraonair.nl.

Regular visitors are used to it by now, but in 2023 you can once again enjoy three days of the very best in alternative music during Jera On Air. Parkway Drive has been one of the very best for years. Not in the least because of their energetic live shows, where fireworks are guaranteed. Both literally and figuratively. Vocalist Jonathan Vigil of The Ghost Inside can easily hold his own with Parkway Drive's colleague Winston McCall. The Americans experienced every band's worst nightmare in 2015, when their tour bus collided head-on with a truck. Both drivers lost their lives and several band members were seriously injured. Drummer Andrew Tkaczyk even spent 10 days in a coma and lost his leg. Like Tkaczyk himself, The Ghost Inside came back stronger than ever after this tragedy.  

'Time Bomb,' 'Ruby Soho' and 'Radio'. Three outright punk classics from one and the same band: Rancid. The punks, who are not averse to a touch of ska from time to time, have been considered innovative, catchy and the best the genre has to offer for over thirty years. Catchy' is not a term easily associated with Meshuggah. Led by Jens Kidman, they know how to thrill millions of fans worldwide.

These four are just a few of the eye-catching names on the provisional Jera On Air 2023 festival poster, which also features Hatebreed, Sick of it All, The Amity Affliction, Fever 333, Motionless in White and Lorna Shore, among others.
