Düsseldorf Now: The current music scene as a mixtape

#12: Moglii

Düsseldorf has a lively music scene. If you want to get an up-to-date overview, check out our Spotify playlist "TSOD Mixtape" - curated by Julian Janisch from the concert agency KKT.

Every week we present an artist or band from the playlist. In this way, we want to help ensure that "The Sound of Düsseldorf" gets the distribution it deserves during the pandemic. As long as no concerts can take place, it is all the more difficult for new artists to find an audience. Support your favorite local bands now. Play it loud for your neighborhood! Here is the profile of Moglii:

Where in Düsseldorf did you play your first concert?
