Music residents

Every year Trix selects new music residents. They get a workplace, coaching, and customized support for a whole year.

Our residents are selected via an open call that is launched once a year (December). A committee consisting of the artistic team of Trix and several external experts guarantees an inclusive and broad view on the selection of residents.

For whom?

Young semi-professional artists or bands from Antwerp (province) at the beginning of their professional career, who have a clearly defined project in mind such as working on an album or a live show.

Are you under 21 and want to focus on your artistic development and experimentation? Every year, we select four Young AIR's. More info »
