Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Swiss exclusivity
A masterful poet and a wildly magnetic performer, Nick Cave belongs — alongside his loyal sonic conspirators, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds — to that rare class of artists who move through the decades without losing a shred of relevance or intensity. From From Her to Eternity, the visceral masterpiece that began it all in 1984, to Wild God, a radiant invocation released in 2024, the Bad Seeds’ discography has no weak links, shifting without compromise between raw, organic ballads and thunderous bursts of noise. On stage, Nick Cave electrifies crowds like few others can. His first Montreux appearance in 2018 turned the Auditorium Stravinski into a kind of ritual space, with the dark-voiced frontman even persuading the audience to sit together on the floor. This summer, the Festival once again gathers around its high priest.
