Monami brings "MTV Unplugged" to Switzerland
The "MTV Unplugged" format comes to Switzerland for the first time in October. Patent Ochsner plays for the 30th anniversary from the Casino in Bern. Monami initiated and organized the first edition.
The band around Büne Huber was chosen as the first Swiss band ever to bring "MTV Unplugged" to Switzerland. In October, the live recordings will take place at the Casino Bern. In February 2022, the accompanying MTV Unplugged album and a concert film will be released. In the same breath, the Ochsners will go on tour with it in spring 2022! Detailed information will follow later.
As is tradition with "MTV Unplugged", no details about the planned surprise guests will be revealed in advance. In the background, however, rehearsals are already in full swing and one can look forward to touching and daring new interpretations of the big, but also smaller Ochsner hits.
The organizer and initiator of the first Swiss "MTV Unplugged" is Monami, and Gadget has been won as the promoter. Coop and PostFinance are acting as exclusive presenting and tour partners, while Schweizerische Südostbahn SOB is the transport partner. The Burgergemeinde Bern and the Casino Bern are also involved. Meanwhile, media partners are 20 minutes and SRF.
The Casino in Bern, newly renovated two years ago by the Burgergemeinde, will be the venue for the first "MTV Unplugged" concert in Switzerland. There, where Louis Armstrong or Grace Kelly already enchanted Switzerland, Patent Ochsner will now record their first best-of album. The "MTV Unplugged" album including DVD will be released in February 2022. Further info also regarding the protection concept will be announced continuously.
The "MTV Unplugged" concert series was launched in 1989 and is considered an accolade in the international music scene. Acts such as Nirvana, Udo Lindenberg, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan have already played their hits "unamplified" on a small scale.
