Since 2021, Groningen has had the talent development program GRONDSLAG, where the most promising local musical talent is prepared for the real deal within one cultural season. And you get to see if they’ve made it! Part of the ‘24/25 cohort will showcase their skills during Noorderzon at Podium Callisto and De Raaf.

Energetic, powerful, and honest — these qualities define the Nederpop artist Sabine. With clear melodies, dark sounds, and a subtle touch of sparkle, she creates a musical world where emotion and energy come together. As an “extroverted thinker,” Sabine expresses inner turmoil through personal lyrics and brings high energy to the stage with her band. Catchy pop hooks and danceable beats make it impossible to stay still!
