My Interests

In it for the music

The SPOT festival has 4 main goals:

- To focus primarily on the newer Danish and Nordic music production.

- To bridge the gap between artistic ambitions and the commercial potential of the music.

-To support and further the cultural qualities of the music.

-To contribute in developing international networks through exchange of concerts and cultural and commercial experience.

The ambition of the SPOT festival is to create a promotion platform for the Danish and Nordic music. The festival’s repertoire is dictated chiefly by the will to support new bands and artists that are of a quality to succeed internationally.

The line-up comprises both debutants as well as more established artists who are recognized as being of interest to either national or international music promoters, cultural institutions or media.

I'd like to meet:
