Popakademie student heats things up at the Biathlon World Team Challenge

18. December 2024

On December 28, 2024, the 21st Biathlon World Team Challenge will take place in the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen. In addition to top-class athletes, there will also be musical entertainment for the spectators.

The 23-year-old Daniele Puccia, who is currently studying vocals and songwriting in the Pop Music Design course, will heat up the audience at Schalke with a mixture of soulful ballads and rousing hits in the German pop genre. His band members are also students at the Popakademie: Eddy Kolb (majoring in keyboard), Leo Kilper (majoring in bass), Joschi Wiesbrock (guitarist, but studying music business) and alumnus Benni Weiss (majoring in drums). Music business student Laetitia Hofmann takes care of Daniele's management.

Alumnus of the Music Business course Max Bischoff contacted the Popakademie to request the act. He works for FC Gelsenkirchen-Schalke 04 e.V. as an event planner and takes care of top-class events in the Veltins-Arena.

Daniele Puccia's appearance was arranged by the Popakademie's own music services agency KLINKT, which has been helping Popakademie solo musicians, bands and producers with live events and music marketing projects since 2007. The agency for music services is thus the interface between the musicians of the Popakademie and the economy and society in the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region and beyond.
