After an exciting application process, we were able to appear in front of the production team of “Höhle der Löwen” for the first time in 2022. We presented our pitch at the CH Media offices in Oerlikon. After a short selection process, it was clear that Matchspace Music was going into the lion's den and was allowed to present to investors and on Swiss TV.

A few months later the time had come! In the studios of 3 Plus in Altstetten there was a showdown between Matchspace Music and the lions. Thanks to the great help of our partner Musik Hug we were able to build a fantastic stage presence with high-quality musical instruments. The team was ready for the pitch... just a few minutes until recording!

The time had come! Matchspace Music is “on air”. We were impressed by the professional setting and the incredible effort put into an episode of HDL! Focused and "on brand" we started with a short performance by Gabriela, our in-house cellist! And action!
