Since 2006, the Reeperbahn Festival has been one of the most important platforms for the music industry worldwide. Always in focus: discovering new music and up-and-coming artists.
This year the Reeperbahn Festival launched the very first ANCHOR Award, an accolade for the best emerging talent, a new standard for the international music scene. A prize designed to become an international quality label, a guide for fans and the music industry in search of the best new music from around the world and a jump start for the competitors' international careers.
Over three days, eight nominees perormed in front of the festival audience and an eclectic jury of music luminaries in the Reeperbahn’s infamous clubs, united by one goal: perform the best gig, enchant the audience, convince the jury and in the end – take home this year’s ANCHOR Award.
Congratulations to UMPG Scandinavia's Albin Lee Meldau on winning the first ever ANCHOR Award!
