Karrierekanonen

Profile

Concept established in 2002 by Danish national broadcaster [l=DR], Bandakademiet and [l=Skanderborg Festival] to promote and evolve upcoming talents on the Danish music scene. Every week a new song by a Danish artist is selected as "Ugens Kanon" and receives airplay on Danish national radio [l=DR P3] and P6 Beat. Furthermore, each year twelve artists are selected by a jury to go through a talent evolution program, culminating with performances at the SPOT Festival in Aarhus. After the SPOT Festival, eight of the artists continue until the final that takes place at [l=Skanderborg Festival]. Finally, three winners are elected. They receive a tailored evolution program at Bandakademiet, their own performance at Skanderborg Festival the following year, and their music get airplay on national radio. Artists that have been discovered via KarriereKanonen includes [a=Klondyke], [a=Tue West], [a=Johnny Deluxe], [a=Rasmus Nøhr], [a=Marie Key Band], [a=Magtens Korridorer], [a=Vild $mith], [a=The Minds of 99], and [a=Katinka (3)].
