NOTHING BUT THIEVES and MATT BERNINGER (National) are coming to EJEKT Festival 2026! You will have the opportunity to meet them at the Telekom Center Athens (Open Air) on July 15th, the same day that THE CURE will appear!
A band that is literally in its infancy, NOTHING BUT THIEVES has a fan audience that is constantly growing in many countries, thanks to the presence of their music in well-known television series (Vikings, The Royals, The Vampire Diaries, etc.) and games (FIFA 16, NHL 17 and 18, Need For Speed Payback, etc.).
MATT BERNINGER is the singer and main stylist of The National. Awarded Grammy, platinum and gold discs in America and Great Britain and billions of streams on various platforms, The National is one of the bands that defined the concept of audio in the 21st century.
Matt Berninger’s characteristic voice and body language have transformed songs such as “I Need My Girl”, “About Today”, “Bloodbuzz Ohio”, “Fake Empire” into characters that accurately describe the situation of the audience of the two previous decades.
Alongside The National, Berninger has released two personal albums, “Serpentine Prison” in 2020 and “Get Sunk” released in May 2025. Also, he has created EL VY (with Brent Knopf of Menomena), while he has collaborated with many elite artists (Churches, Booker T Jones, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Phoebe Bridgers), and his collaboration with Taylor Swift is most notable.
At his appearance at the EJEKT Festival 2026, MATT BERNINGER will present material from his entire discography and perform songs from The National.
