What a highlight is coming up!
We are very much looking forward to two bands that regularly make the audience's mouths drop open in amazement and not infrequently tears flow because their music and their shows are so extraordinary, so moving and so unforgettable.
EMILIE ZOÉ
This young guitarist and singer from Lausanne can already look back on an amazing career.
In 2019, she was a laureate of the "Swiss Music Awards" as "Best Act Romandie" and was among the winners* of the Swiss Music Prize in 2020 and won the Swiss Culture Prize in 2021. Her first EP "Empty" (2013), the debut album "Dead End Tape" (2016), the project band "Autisti" with the musical jack-of-all-trades Louis Jucker (2017) and her second album "The Very Start" (2018) were followed in 2020 by the album "Pigeons - Soundtrack for the Birds on the Treetops Watching the Movie of our Lives" as a soundtrack project for Christian Garcia-Gaucher's art film "A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence". As "/A\" Emilie Zoé recorded a record of the same name with her drummer of many years Nicolas Pittet and Franz Treichler (The Young Gods), with which the trio played mainly at festivals in 2021. In 2022, their current LP "Hello Future Me" followed, which, like all their musical creations, was released on the Swiss label Hummus Records from La Chaux-de-Fonds. Another album is scheduled to follow in late 2023, which will be taken on tour. The incomparable, high-intensity live show, whose intensity can always be glimpsed a little on the recordings, must be experienced live to truly comprehend Emilie Zoé's genius. She establishes such an intimate relationship with her audience that everyone simply feels addressed.
ENIK
We are lucky that Enik is not already filling soccer stadiums with his music and living a swanky life as a pop star overseas. He is so busy that there is hardly an area in which he has not already caused a stir with his music. Both as a musician and composer, but also as a producer and as an actor, Enik has been able to make a name for himself with his unmistakable creative work. Among other things, he has received several awards for his productions for renowned German musicians, composed the music and especially the orchestral parts for the world premiere of the play "und wenn ich von der zeit spreche spreche ich von der zeit die schon nicht mehr ist (am ende des rollfelds)" by Thomas Köck at the Theater Münster and recently united with the play "Get Lost", a music theater piece with young performers from the Bavarian State Opera and the Schauburg Munich, which was aimed at a young audience and premiered at Backstage, united Claudio Monteverdi's compositions with his own modern musical visions.
