SPOT is proud to reveal the programme for the official Opening Night – a night with a focus on creativity, and a night which also makes up a small-scale picture of the rest of the festival.

One of the acts on this night is new fast rising Swedish singer Amanda Jenssen, who will take on swing, pop, ditties, rock’n’roll, soul and lots of other genres. Her sources of inspiration include Elvis, Edith Piaf, Tom Waits and Ella Fitzgerald.

Next to go stage will be the musical fusion Slaraffenklang, which consists of the bands Efterklang and Slaraffenland. Combined, they make up an ensemble with two drummers, eleven vocalists, three guitarists, two bass players, a piano, electronics and approximately 17 different wind instruments.

In addition to the two concerts, there are going to be speeches, etc. at the Opening Night, which will also mark the new initiative InterSPOT where 21 acts are going to play at seven venues in Aarhus after the opening show.

The Opening Night of The SPOT Festival 2010 is going to take place in the largest hall in the Concert Hall area, Aarhus on Thursday May 20th at 7 PM. The Opening Night is a separate event during the festival the price of a ticket is DKK 125. Tickets can be purchased via billetlugen.dk or at The Concert Hall, Aarhus.
