Oslo to Istanbul

We are better together.


In a time of increasing political and cultural division and in the aftermath of a global pandemic, we believe that art, music and media can be the guiding light to bring people together and inspire a better tomorrow.


We want to do our part by creating something greater than our individual selves and inspire a collective identity through a joint project that includes artists from many European countries, backgrounds, genres and styles:

A creative road trip that connects Europe through music & art.

Album
Songs, written on the road and recorded in studios, homes and pop-up places with local and international artists, published to all streaming services and printed on vinyl.

Documentary
Telling the story of both a creative road trip and the search for a collective identity in a 60-90 min. documentary, to be pitched to streaming services, TV stations and documentary film festivals.

Tour Diary
Telling the story in pictures, videos & articles on a designated blog, featuring artists we meet, our partners, & collaborators, sharing our learnings, struggles and experiences.

We aim to leave a legacy and inspire through media that will stay relevant long after we come back home and start planning our next trip.

We create. And inspire to create.

We make it our mission to surround ourselves with people and organizations that 
share our values of creativity, community, equality, sustainability and adventure. We believe we can inspire these values in others and show how a connected Europe creates opportunities, opens perspectives and can be the driver for creativity.

By becoming a supporter and partner on this wild ride, you will help us make the best of this crazy opportunity. Your support will contribute to putting food on the table while on the road, to reaching a broader audience by allowing us to advertise, to increasing quality by allowing us to pay for studio time, to the production of the vinyls and the edit time of the documentary. Your support will contribute to the careers of all the artists involved, allow us to spend more time on the project and make you an integral part of something that is bigger than all of us.

As you can see, we would only get the money after the tour is already over. This is intentional as we are using this campaign to also allow new connections, new fans and new partners to jump on board and support the project while it´s already happening.
We are lucky to have partners and people that are fronting the initial costs of the project from their own pockets. So the first step will be to pay them back. This will happen in combination with fees, ticket sales and merch sales from the road. The next step will be to cover costs for the production of the vinyl and the finalization of the film before.
