Watch Montreux Jazz Festival shows on Red Bull TV

Catch performances from MØ and more as Red Bull TV broadcasts from the prestigious international festival from July 7.

Switzerland's Montreux Jazz Festival, on the shores of Lake Geneva, celebrated its golden anniversary last year. That's 50 years of events. Impressive. But it's not about to start resting on its laurels. Famed for its varied line-up of music legends, rising stars and cutting-edge artists, the programme for the 51st edition of Montreux Jazz Festival is just as diverse and exciting as always. Which is why Red Bull TV is broadcasting performances from Montreux over the festival's two sold-out weekends.

Kicking things off at 7pm CEST on July 7 is Danish pop singer MØ. Karen Marie Ørsted has been lighting up festivals around the world for a few years now, but this year she's moving up and into headline territory. And why not? Her collaboration with DJ Snake, Lean On, is one of the most-streamed songs of all time and her debut album, No Mythologies To Follow, saw her winning acclaim across the board. She's since worked with Major Lazer, Charli XCX, Justin Bieber and Snakehips. Not bad for a relative newcomer.

MØ took time out from recording her second album to perform live at Montreux Jazz Festival on July 3 – and now you can watch a 60-minute broadcast of the show on Red Bull TV. Expect gutsy, sugary, big-hearted synth-pop inspired by MØ's childhood heroes Spice Girls and their ilk as much as it is by her alt-rock idols Sonic Youth and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. 

Tune into Red Bull TV on July 7 from 7pm CEST.
