From 9th until 12th of September, in Salento Italy, open – air Controllers’ Music Festival happened for the first time in history. The prerequisite for participation for each band was at least one of the band members to have an active ATC license. The band from Macedonia, Control Freaks, had the honour to open this Festival, and the vocalist was our employee Natasha Mijat Krstevska, also known as Miyatta. Thirteen bands from different controllers’ centers from all over the world shared the festival’s stage: Karlsrhue – Germany, Prague – Chech Republic, Teheran – Iran, Gran Canaria, Rome, Brindisi and Milano from Italy and others.
“I sincerely hope that this festival will become tradition because the feeling to have so many people that are kindred souls not only as controllers but as well as musicians is indescribable. A grand applause for our colleagues from Brindisi who are the organisors of this event” – says Natasha Mijat Krstevska after her return from the Controllers’ Music Festival.
