Who we are
Who we are
We are Swiss. Meaning that we are pragmatic, on-time, on-budget, and well organized.
We are artists. Meaning we love creativity, new sounds, artistic experiences and we are bit crazy as well.
What we do
What we do
We are helping emerging artists to express themselves live on the local scene.
We are finding, places, dates, festivals that will be happy to open their eyes and ears to something new.
We are organising evenings with one or more artists in small places that we can easily be filled with a passionate audience, friends, and the regular clients who just want to have a beer (but we’ll make them discover more than the local IPA).
We are trying to make artists work together for the best of all. For instance, we can have a brand-new artist opening for already known one, both sharing effort, revenues-if-any in a loyal way.
We are promoting live pop/rock/metal music, only your own titles, no covers, no DJing.

How does this work?
How does this work?
We will select (yes, we are quality-oriented), the artists that we think can fit perfectly in our project.
We build a catalog of events ranging from a single acoustic artist up to a 3 bands rock/metal concert.
We propose this catalog to the local venues around us (“Suisse romande” and near France)
We maintain an agenda of the events, and we ensure the communication on social networks, local radios and TVs, local press.
On the date, we organize the logistics (travel, backline etc…).
What is our business model?
What is our business model?
We are working as volunteers. We don’t expect to get rich, but we don’t want to lose money.
This means that every event must at least reach a financial balance.
To ensure this, we may ask the artist for an initial contribution that will be refunded if the balance of the event is positive.
We have different offers, ranging from free concerts, where bands provide all logistics/equipment/backline, and are paid with free donation by audience (in Suisse romande we say “au chapeau”…), up to paid tickets, artist’s fee, and all-in-one organisation.
