This was released last week, but it's certainly not too late to share... Check out this great promo video for the upcoming edition of Kollaboration Acoustic, showcasing some of the best emerging musical talents from the API community. It features all of the talent show's competitors getting together to perform a fun cover of Yael Naim's "New Soul":

This is one of my favorite events of the year. It's just a really cool, intimate venue to hear some great up-and-coming musicians, and I always walk away feeling like I just discovered my new favorite artist. (Full disclosure: I am serving as one of the judges at this year's event.)
For more information about Kollaboration Acoustic 5, including the full bios of all the artists, and to purchase tickets, go to the Kollaboration website here. I'll also be doing a ticket giveaway in a couple of weeks, so stay tuned...
