Swiss Haute Horlogerie manufacturer Audemars Piguet has announced the second year of its collaboration with British singer-songwriter RAYE, culminating in a bespoke live performance at the opening night of the 60th Montreux Jazz Festival.

Titled THIS STAGE MAY CONTAIN MOMENTS IN TIME, the one-off concert will take place at the iconic Stravinski Auditorium, celebrating six decades of the festival while exploring RAYE's personal interpretation of time, creativity and artistic freedom.

The collaboration reflects the shared values of independence, resilience and craftsmanship that connect the award-winning artist with the watchmaker. Following a landmark year that saw RAYE make history at the 2024 BRIT Awards, the partnership continues through Audemars Piguet's APxMusic programme, which supports musicians through creative collaborations and original projects.

Building on their previous collaboration with producer Mark Ronson on the original track "Suzanne," Audemars Piguet is once again providing RAYE with a platform to experiment across music, storytelling and live performance.

As Global Partner of the Montreux Jazz Festival since 2019, Audemars Piguet continues to champion artistic talent through APxMusic, reinforcing its commitment to fostering creativity and meaningful cultural exchange beyond the world of watchmaking.
