Domestic acts use international platform
Swiss acts Evelinn Trouble, Velvet Two Stripes and Peter Kernel will have the opportunity to present their work to promoters and producers at the major industry festival The Great Escape in Brighton, UK.
The Great Escape is considered one of Europe's most important hubs for contemporary music creation. It is visited by the general public as well as talent scouts and other industry professionals. This year, 15,000 visitors are expected.
The festival, which was founded in 2006, will take place in 30 venues in Brighton. Debates, workshops and networking events are also organized. A total of 350 local and international artists perform. The event is sold out.
The Swiss promotional organization Swiss Muisc Export, in collaboration with the Fondation SUISA and Pro Helvetia, is organizing its own event, the Swiss Business Mixer, in Brighton for the first time. The three Swiss groups will present themselves both at this event and in the official festival program.
