And can you tell us a bit about the acts you personally work with at this moment?

I work with a variety of national and international artists. Some of the most exciting acts for me personally would be the Austrian pop band Bilderbuch, indie rock legend Peter Doherty, “all killer no filler” Bloc Party but also acts like Friska Viljor from Sweden, I previously worked with Linn Koch-Emmery or Alli Neumann. Everything that is kind of on the indie spectrum suits me and our company.

What was the moment you decided you wanted to work with music?

As a teenager I used to play drums but wasn’t any good. Early on, I accepted that I wouldn’t make it as a performing artist so I started touring and selling my friend’s merch at their shows and decided that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. In my university years, still working as a tourmanager, social media manager and basically everything people offered me, I got into PR music journalism, glad I found a proper job and doing what I love each day.

Which acts are you looking forward to seeing this year at SPOT?

School of X, Blaest, Ericka Jane, Agnes Hartwich, LUSTER, M. Byrd, SASO, PRISMA, Little Winter, PIND and many more.

Best show you’ve ever seen hands down? 

Eminem together with XZibit & Cypress Hill in 2003.
