One audio engineer and one media designer hit the road to spot talented singer/songwriters in pubs all over Europe. Once found, the artist is recorded on a Revox tape-deck from the boot of the VW van and within 24 hours the song is shared with listeners worldwide. In order to capture the essence of the song, the artist is recorded under limited circumstances- just like in the old days!
