Due to commitments in the USA, the singer D'Angelo won't be able to come to the Montreux Jazz Festival. He hopes to return to Switzerland as soon as possible and would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused. The Montreux Jazz Festival regrets not to welcome back D'Angelo this year, but is very proud and honored to welcome for the first time, as Swiss Festival Exclusive, the great artist M.I.A.

Back earlier this year with her new single "Bad Girls" whose controversial clip spread on the web at lightning speed, M.I.A. announced the release of her fourth studio album expected for this summer. From her beginnings in 2005, the British singer, writer and producer has imposed her avant-garde style: an explosive mixture of hip-hop, electro and grime. After the success of Kala (2007) and / \ / \ / \ Y / \ (2010), the multi-talented artist has turned out to be one of the most notable musical figures of these past years. We are delighted to receive her at this year’s Festival on the Auditorium Stravinski stage!

She recently posted on the web a teaser of her next single "Come Walk With Me". Can't wait for the album to be released!
