The life philosophy of the rap group Gasellit could be distilled into three words: brotherhood, friendship and partayyyy! Gasellit have been on the go for ten years and have gone from strength to strength, reaching cult status among young adults who know how to have a good time. There seems to be nothing stopping these guys: their club gigs are repeatedly sold out and their albums spring to the top of the charts as soon as they leave the studio.
Once you witness Gasellit live, you will understand what the hype is about – they sure know how to put their life philosophy into action. The buddy-buddy vibe and boisterous energy at their gigs is tangible – and extremely contagious! As soon as the first beats and rhymes hit the sunkissed faces of the Ilosaarirock audience this July... BOOM! There will be no doubt where the party’s at!
