The Julie Campiche Quartet, composed of Swiss musicians of the new generation, has evolved with one voice into a new visionary territory. It is conceptual and intimate, with more advanced orchestral arrangements, more expressive instrumentation and ever more complex musical and harmonic structures.

Their first album, Onkalo (inspired by a Finnish underground reservoir used to dump radioactive waste), released in 2020, already reflected Julie Campiche’s desire to connect her music to broader societal issues. Now they are back with a second album You Matter: an innovative work of avant-garde jazz whose common threads are woven by the magical, unexpected and sensitive sounds of the harp. The group delivers a compelling and hopeful message built around societal issues such as climate change, the refugee crisis, patriarchy and human identity. These themes give their music a fragility that is both determined and urgent, as compelling as it is reflective.

In concert, the quartet likes to surround itself with a psychedelic set design, for an immersive listening experience, a unique sensory journey.

“The idea is to reconnect with ourselves; with the feeling that can impact our world; that our actions are important and meaningful. What I’m trying to do as an artist is to create a link between the big and the small, the intimate and the societal. We all matters, You Matter, so don’t give up. We can all make a difference” – Julie Campiche.
