Stadt fördert junge Band «Suicide Bridge»

13. November 2024

Two years ago, the city of Chur launched a new support program as part of its 2025 cultural strategy. The "Newcomer Stages & Live Support" program brings young urban and rock bands from Chur to the stage and shows them the way into the music industry. On November 16, "Suicide Bridge" will be in the spotlight, playing live in the Toms Beer Box.

The launch of the funding vehicle in 2021 was triggered by the public discussion of the city's "cultural spaces" objective. As part of this, it was pointed out several times that there was a major lack of performance opportunities for young bands in particular. For this reason, the city council has set up a new funding vehicle for these young artists in the form of "Newcomer Stages & Live Support" so that an appropriate capacity of stage space can be "purchased" from event organizers in Chur each year.

This year, "Suicide Bridge" now has the opportunity to improve their stage presence and gain visibility. In addition to the opportunity to perform at Toms Beer Box on November 16, they will receive advice from a specialist from the music industry and receive valuable expert feedback. Suicide Bridge is a young alternative metal band from Chur that writes both covers and original songs. With powerful drums, fast guitar, hard bass and loud vocals, the band aims to get the audience headbanging.
