The Images festival in Copenhagen is currently happening, and I am proud
to be part of it during the weekend concerts taking place at
Dronning Louise's Bro; the gateway to most multi cultural area of
Copenhagen – Nørrebro.
During
2 weekends here in September the festival will occupy the bridge and
set up a big stage feat. some of the finest music from around the
world. Music with attitude, political impact, vibes and love. During the week there is all sorts of exhibitions on the
bridge as well. As many other shows around town.

The
Utopia Stage in the heart of the city
As
host/ introducer I have already had the honour to introduce the
audience to such fantastic bands as the trio Ajinai from Mongolia,
the punk band Demerit from China, the political activists from TurningTables and the marvelous colombian band Bomba Estéreo. I have never
seen any of these bands live before, and especially Bomba Estéreo
blew me away. Totally.. Their live performance is already on my TOP 3
list of best live concerts this year.
