Introduction We’re in this together! As sad as the news was that we won’t meet at ESNS in Groningen this year either, this decision was also understandable and responsible. And yet the starting shot of the live music year 2022 will again be different from what we would all wish for. Roaming through the clubs and venues of Groningen together and looking for the next inspiring moment like the truffle pigs will be very missing. It is precisely these moments that get stuck. When we started the European Talent Exchange Program (ETEP) together in 2003, for example, it was this crazy Scandinavian band who wore gas masks and hit oil drums with ax handles. Kaizers Orchestra were one of the absolute highlights at the beginning of ETEP, which is called ESNS Exchange now, and a stepping stone for that band from Norway on the stages of many festivals in various parts of Europe. It is a prime example of how a great idea, implemented in a smart way, can benefit everyone involved. In the two decades that followed, many more magical moments followed in Groningen. We got to know new exciting acts like Mø, Fountains DC, Alma, Zeal & Ardor or Sigrid and got the opportunity to go our own way with them. Some of the hopeful ESNS Exchange talents have become the headliners of our festivals like Sam Smith, Franz Ferdinand, Dua Lipa, George Ezra, Seeed, Editors, The Kooks to name a few. The European festivals and especially our network of YOUROPE (The European Festival Association) members have always been an indispensable component in this model project - and they will remain so. In these uncertain times in particular, it is our task and duty to continue to look at the creative people who enrich our lives. The ones who give us those magical moments. In the best case scenario, we will create these moments and immortal memories together - with today’s talents for a common future at our festivals. Even if we do not scout our new favorites in downtown Groningen, but online and only meet them personally on our stages in the summer. I firmly believe that we will make this happen and that, after 4561 shows of 1711 European artists from 38 countries at 130 European festivals in the last two decades, we will have many more to follow.

About ESNS Exchange How does ESNS Exchange work? Each year the most relevant and promising European artists are selected to play at ESNS. ESNS Exchange - The European Talent Exchange Programme was introduced to make the “exchange” of these European artists across Europe possible on a greater scale than ever before. An initiative of ESNS; ESNS Exchange facilitates the bookings of European acts on festivals outside of their home countries and generates extensive radio and media exposure for these artists in cooperation with the European Broadcasting Union and local media. This way, ESNS Exchange aims to give a boost to the international careers of European artists. In short, ESNS Exchange requires festivals to select foreign artists from the line-up of ESNS, guaranteeing confirmed slots at their festival. In support, radio stations generate airplay for these acts and written media support the acts in the national press. This cooperation between festivals and media guarantees maximum exposure and offers a perfect opportunity for managers and agents to promote their artists outside of their home countries. Moreover, playing at one or more of the major ESNS Exchange festivals which attract thousands of music lovers, helps artists greatly to expose their music to an audience numbering in the millions. In order to strengthen the capacity of emerging artists to sustain an international career, ESNS Exchange also invests in educating emerging artists and their managers on how the international music industry works. As in 2021 we still had to deal with a pandemic that brought the music industry to a standstill, many ESNS Exchange festivals had to be cancelled or postponed. To still succeed in our mission, to give emerging acts as much exposure as possible we adjusted our strategy. Next to booking the ESNS Exchange artists, the festivals were allowed to promote them on their platforms if their festival could not take place. This resulted in 80 promotions for 73 acts from 21 countries by 37 festivals from 20 countries.
About ESNS Exchange Why ESNS Exchange? ETEP was implemented because of the great difficulties that European pop music experiences in international promotion and distribution. Historically, Anglo-American repertoire has been the main focus of professional music distribution and promotion. Despite its great diversity and quality, European music distribution has lagged behind. Therefore, ETEP’s main goal is to stimulate cooperation on the cultural, business and media level between professionals in the music field. ETEP was primarily initiated in order to develop a solid network among the involved parties to promote, support, motivate and encourage the free flow of creative European music talent across the world. ETEP aims to build a strong alliance involving the most influential parties in European music, such as the European Broadcasting Union and European music media such as Musikwoche, DIY, and VIP. This provides a network of associates who are able to reach an audience of millions, thereby guaranteeing the continuing expansion of European music. It creates a unique cooperative working relationship between professionals in the European music business.
About ESNS Exchange A. General Objectives The main objective of the ESNS Exchange project is to facilitate the circulation of European music, artists and productions and have the music industry and media working together to promote acts and their repertoire. There are four specific objectives: • To have as many European acts programmed as possible at as many festivals as possible; • To promote European acts not only on festivals but in parallel through extensive media coverage; • To stimulate the music industry and media to work on the circulation European music repertoire; • To boost the international careers of European artists.
