Celica rocks, dances, moves, and grooves at the hottest concert events in town - for the fifth year in a row! For our fifth birthday, we’ll be hosting an unforgettable concert party in July and August 2026, featuring a top lineup of local and international bands!

We could give you five reasons why we invited Crippling Alcoholism to join the party, but honestly, they all come down to the same thing: they released one of the best albums of 2025. To help kick things off, we asked Slovenian producer Frankly to join the bill with a brand new set. 

Crippling Alcoholism is a Boston-based project working at the intersection of pop immediacy and abrasive noise rock. Their 2025 breakthrough album, Camgirl, frames earworm hooks against themes of obsession, endurance, and collapse, allowing pleasure and revulsion to coexist without easy resolution.

Released September 12, 2025, Camgirl follows a loose narrative centered on a sex worker navigating cycles of exploitation and survival, where intimacy becomes spectacle and visibility carries risk. Grotesque and confrontational subject matter sits inside deliberately melodic structures, with choruses that linger even as the lyrics resist comfort. Songs move between confession and performance, desire and despair, illuminated by artificial light.

The band joined The Flenser for a reissue of Camgirl and their forthcoming next album, marking a new chapter while continuing to refine their balance of melody, abrasion, and lived experience.

Frankly is a music producer and bassist involved in various projects, and this time he will present his new album titled Aperitiv za samomor (“Aperitif for Suicide”). The album is a blend of electronic music, hip hop, trip hop, and jazz. In the second part of the concert, he will be joined on stage by his longtime musical partner, Matija Dolenčić (Kreek).

See you at our favorite hostel – as always, free entry!
