Management & Booking

Zig Zag World is a non-profit organization based in Brussels, Belgium, specializing in the international management of artists and ensembles, booking, record, production, publishing and artistic consultancy. We represent a diverse range of unique and innovative projects across various musical genres, including world, blues, French chanson style, jazz music, contemporary and crossover projects.
