Beyond the Groove: Keynote Talk with Neal Sugarman

FREE ENTRANCE
Renowned (session) musician Neal Sugarman is at home in soul, funk, gospel, R'n'B and Afrobeat. The producer and co-founder of Daptone Records reflects on his artistic journey and shares valuable insights for aspiring talents. What would he do differently? What is important to him besides authenticity and handmade music? And what advice does he have for young musicians? One thing is clear: his words, ‘Nothing is forever’, underscore the importance of evolving constantly. In his conversation with Emel Ilter – record collector, DJ and radio host from Basel – the American saxophonist also talks about the opportunities and risks facing young artists, label deals and which (Swiss) talents have landed on his radar.

This conference is conducted in English.
