At the opening of the Bern shop in March 2024, we were privileged to exhibit Lauren Napier’s paintings for the first time in Europe.
In addition to the exhibition, Lauren graced us with an acoustic session.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had met Lauren a year earlier, when she first arrived on Swiss soil, during two dates as a duo with Vic Ruggiero “the Witch and the Burro”. I’ve been following Vic and his other band for years, and was very curious to see another side of him. The first night was magical, the combination of these two voices was incredibly powerful. The second night wasn’t on my agenda, but as no tickets had been sold in advance, I couldn’t pass up a second chance to see this emotionally-charged concert. I grabbed my friend Ben and we ventured out to Thune\u2026 We spent a wonderful afternoon with the artists, touring the town, and then in the evening, we headed to the alternative caf\u00e9 bar Mokka. This time, they made me cry. What an incredible concert. The way back was really difficult. I didn’t want to go home.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And here we are, a year later, a year in which I’ve stayed in touch with Lauren, and this time the idea was to combine an art exhibition with an acoustic session. The fact that we were opening a new shop in Bern was a bit of a surprise, a stroke of luck. All in all, here we are 2 days later, with stars in our eyes, still debriefing the great opening night we organized in Bern.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
