V-ROX at a popular Estonian showcase festival Tallinn Music Week

Our festival delegation took part in the ‘speed meetings’ program where they met up and spoke with Estonian and foreign artists. They also took the chance to introduce Russian far eastern acts and shared potential artists for 2016 lineup to industry colleagues.

Tallinn Music Week is already in its seventh year and is considered as one of the leading European city festivals.

It is thanks to this festival last year we were able to find the extraordinary group Trad.Attack! (participants of V-ROX 2015) they are now moving to conquering the music scene not only in Europe but are also embarking on a trip to Asia to take part in festivals such as Jazz in Seoul and then perform at a Chinese showcase festival Sounds of The Xity in Beijing, where also V-ROX representatives will participate as panel speakers.

While on a talent scouting mission in Tallinn, V-ROX delegation found a warming surprise, a local talent, in the Estonian President Toomas Hendrik Ilves who presented his very own compilation with a special DJ SET “Teenage Wasteland — Favourites 1963–1978″ . It was a great honour speaking to Mr IIves and share musical tastes, as a present V-ROX received its very own signed copy of the compilation CD.

Until next time, WE V-ROX YOU!
