FiftyFifty Lab is a brand new festival with an original concept: 20 of the finest alternative festivals of this time, from Dour to Primavera, are curating a lineup of two days filled with promising up and coming talents. Forget about the traditional big names and headliners: you’re here to bring your ears out of their comfort zones and meet your next music obsessions. All of the artists are performing their showcases in Brussels’ human-sized venues, in front of a public thirsting for new sounds and a panel of bloggers and journalists ready to unearth some overlooked gems. The festival also offers some conferences about music and socio-economic and cultural issues. We attended this first edition, which was assuredly a success, and took some pictures and videos just for you. Enjoy below, read more about the festival on their website and, of course, see you there next year!
