Neil Young to top bill as Montreux Jazz Festival turns 50
Montreux has over the past half century become a magnet for big names of the music business and rising stars alike.
It has retained its jazz label despite dramatically expanding its repertoire over the years.
This year, Canadian singer-songwriter legend Neil Young will be one of the top attractions when he hits the main stage on July 12, 15 years after his only previous appearance at the festival.
Describing him as the "godfather of the punk movement, then of grunge", organisers hailed Young as "a truly monumental figure on the music scene."
We're a long way from Swiss Movement.
