For our Guestlist podcast, Stubru presenter Rik De Bruycker looks at AB behind the scenes. In this episode he speaks to activists within the music industry.

In times of energy crisis and climate change, this question appears more relevant than ever. Touring, too, has an impact on the climate.

The Norwegian electropop artist Aurora, who recently played to a sold-out AB, has a strong opinion on this topic. She has been fighting for green issues for years. Rik De Bruycker talks with her about growing up in the forest, climate depression, injustice and rebellion, the pressures of social media and Brian Eno!

Inextricably intertwined with sustainable touring is Mathias Cobbaut. As tour manager at Lobbycall, managing Foals, Boys Noize and The 1975 among others, he tries to translate green theory into practice. We talk about how small bands can contribute too, about a points system for venues and tours, the price tag and bamboo stages.

This time, the musical tip comes from Lise De Coster. She’s in charge of AB’s impeccable administration and much more.
