Can Dua Lipa’s family change Kosovo’s image?


Listen Later

More than 25 years after the Kosovo war, a music festival in the capital Pristina is hoping to change the image of the country around the world by inviting international artists and fans to learn more about the country’s cultural scene.

Sunny Hill Festival is organised by global pop star Dua Lipa and her dad Dugi, who’s from Pristina.

They are using their industry contacts to bring acts like Bebe Rexha, Stormzy and Burna Boy to party with tens of thousands of people, as well as inviting top industry experts.

But more than 15 years after Kosovo declared independence, could politicians be doing more to help boost the country’s music scene rather than relying on the Lipa family?
Produced and presented by Daniel Rosney
