Selected from applicants across all 27 EU Member States, these artists were chosen for the originality of their work and their potential to build something new through transatlantic collaboration. The American peers, Black Buttafly, Brittany Luna of Catbite, Charlie Hall of The War On Drugs, Khemist Mayfield, and Laurin Talease, were chosen to represent the cultural richness of the host city along with their potential to make the most of this multinational program.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIn the program, EU and U.S. artists will collaborate in studio sessions, mentorship, and direct conversations with producers, performers, and music business professionals.
