Andraž Kajzer is the artistic director and festival manager of MENT, a four-day music discovery festival and conference held annually in Ljubljana since 2015. His route into music has been anything but straightforward, he’s poured beers, painted walls, run an indie label, edited print and online media, made a documentary on free music, and worked as a journalist, critic, promoter, tour manager, and sound technician. He has organised and facilitated numerous workshops, was involved in the international affairs committee at the Slovenian Ministry of Culture and occasionally promotes concerts in Ljubljana. MENT Ljubljana #13 takes place 17–20 February 2027.
