The next person on stage was the Danish Minister of Culture Uffe Elbæk who talked about the influence and importance of SPOT Festival as being a unique festival that manages to give something to the both the business side of the music industry as well as the audience.
The second musical act was Nabiha who gave a concert filled to the brim with pop and a powerfull voice and followed by Mike Sheridan that took the darkend stage with a pianist, a violinist, cellist and a drummer/percussionist.
This was a performance which created a dreamy mixture of electronic, avantgarde jazz and neo-classical music. A very interesting experience for the audience to witness.
After this last act the SPOT Festival was most definately in the air.
