Newcomer Stages mit Zoe Hannah und Red Echo

On Friday, 24 October 2025, the Kulturhaus Chur will become the stage for two promising young talents. Zoe Hannah Alig from Chur will open the evening, followed by the duo Red Echo. The funding project of the city of Chur enables young talents to enter the music scene.

Zoe Hannah

Zoe Hannah Alig opens the evening. The 15-year-old from Chur discovered her passion for music and language at an early age. Even as a child, she wrote imaginative stories, composed her first songs and accompanied herself on the piano. Today she sings and writes in English. Her songs often arise from spontaneous melodies or concise text fragments that she captures on the way - before she finds the right harmonies at home on the piano. Zoe Hannah draws inspiration from her experiences in a school band, among other things. At the concert in the Kulturhaus, she will be accompanied by Layla Derungs (bass), Matteo Casanova (guitar) and Elio Banzer (drums).

Red Echo

In the second part of the evening, the Graubünden duo Red Echo provides energy and goosebump moments. With driving guitar riffs, honest lyrics and memorable melodies, Céline Mazenauer (bass) and Jana Temelkov (vocals) have created their very own music. Amplified live by Sebastian (drums), Samuele (rhythm guitar) and Victoria (lead guitar), they bring their powerful songs to the stage with full dynamics. Her dream? Standing on the really big stages, building a real connection with the fans and making music that touches.

Funding project of the city of Chur

The concert is part of the city's "Newcomer Stages" project, which promotes young musicians. In addition to performance opportunities, it offers workshops, coaching and support in areas such as photo shoots, social media and communication – accompanied by the Rob Nicolas agency. In addition, the city of Chur offers professional input, expert discussions and individual support to strengthen musical talents in the long term.
