2021 Zermatt Unplugged is offering six Swiss singer-songwriters for the first time an exclusive, creative, and interactive academy program. The aim of this initiative is to support and advance participants in their work and on their path forward. Getting in the music business is a major hurdle for many young musicians. In addition to skill, it takes a lot of energy, perseverance, and a little luck. Even time and space – both of which are often rarely available in everyday life. The Mountain Academy should be precisely the place where space and time are made available.
THE FIRT ACADEMY EDITION.
The program.
Are you ready to be inspired? Are you ready to create? Challenge your status quo!
