La Fabrik
des francofolies
A project dedicated to supporting emerging artists in Luxembourg
La Fabrik des Francofolies is at the heart of our mission to support and grow the next wave of musical talent in Luxembourg. For the past three years, we’ve been selecting two emerging artists and offering them a customized program with three key elements:
1/ CREATIVE SUPPORT
- A residency at Kulturfabrik to help artists get stage-ready.
- Workshops and coaching sessions with industry pros in stage direction, vocals, movement, sound, and lighting.
2/ PERSONALIZED GUIDANCE
- Insights into the music industry with themed workshops connected to Francofolies de La Rochelle.
- Helping artists understand how to structure their careers and navigate the music market.
3/ PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES
- A spot on one of the Francofolies Esch/Alzette stages.
- Chances to connect with industry professionals, as well as venues and festivals in the network.
Who can apply ?
This project is designed for emerging artists who are ready to take the next step in their careers. The program adapts to each artist’s needs, offering personalized support to help them grow.
SELECTION CRITERIA
- Artists with a connection to Luxembourg (either by origin or residence).
- Artists with some live performance experience.
- We’re looking for artists who are serious about going professional.
Méthodologie
The two selected artists meet the various professionals and stakeholders for an initial discussion to get to know each other and identify their needs.
The system is organized to ensure that all those involved can create the conditions for a friendly and creative welcome.
A video report is produced to follow the artists throughout the process, from their first meetings to their performance at the Francofolies Esch/Alzette festival.
Through its partners, the project is able to offer high-quality hosting and support services. The venues, recording studios, support structures and bilateral links between Francofolies provide musicians with a complete and pleasant working environment.
