About

BumaStemra's Rise Up and Dutch Music Export are excited to announce an upcoming writing camp organised by CIAM exclusively for women.

The event is set to take place at the renowned VISOM Digital Studios in Rio de Janeiro from November 6th to 8th, 2023. You are invited to apply for a spot!


This event will have a primary focus on the Latin American market, featuring the participation of five talented writers from the region. Additionally, we anticipate a diverse group of participants hailing from various corners of the globe, including New Zealand, the United States, Canada, South Africa, and more. In a bid to empower women in the field of songwriting, CIAM, in collaboration with BumaStemra/Dutch Music Export, is offering support for one Dutch female writer to join this exceptional camp. We will cover the costs for your airplane tickets and your hotel stay from the 5th till the 10th of November. Next to the writing camp you will also be invited to the CIAM-conference on the 9th of November where you will have the opportunity to meet creators from all over the world.

So if you are a female songwriter eager to explore the vibrant Lat-Am music scene and possess a wealth of experience in writing sessions and camp environments, we encourage you to seize this opportunity! To apply, please submit your motivation letter, CV, and portfolio to Dutch Music Export no later than October 5th. Join us in Rio de Janeiro for a transformative and culturally enriching experience!

This initiative is powered by Rise Up, a program of BumaStemra. For more information, check here.

Tramhaus at MaMA Music & Convention in Paris, France


The Rotterdam-based punk band Tramhaus is adding the MaMA Music & Convention 2024 in Paris, FR, to their showcase festival streak.

About Tramhaus

Rotterdam’s new livewire post-punk act Tramhaus have quickly carved out their own space within the Dutch port city’s notable enclaves of noise-making firebrands. The five-piece prowl right at the nerve center of the city’s suffering. On stage, the group creates shell-shocked havoc, together with fragments of unfortunate incidents and bleak everyday realities. Like any great punk rock band in their formative stages, Tramhaus thrive on a knee-jerk energy and pure insanity to propel their songwriting, spitting the words of the oppressor back at their targets.

Performance Info

Date: October 11, 2023

Location: Le Backstage by the Mill

Time: 23:30 - 00:15
