Stichting Spelbrekers is a new and innovative musical foundation from Utrecht with the goal of expanding the definition of musicals to reach a broader audience and showcase the immense expressive power of musical theatre. A true Spelbreker breaks with musical traditions—whether in music style or by addressing contemporary, socially critical themes—but always uses the power of musicals to blow the audience away.
EKKO is happy to offer upcoming bands the opportunity to showcase their releases with us.
