You can never get enough of superstar Alicia Keys. That was the case even at the start of her career, when she sold 300,000 copies of her debut album within the space of one week.

It takes courage to stand comparison with these superlatives, but Annie Goodchild has got what it takes: The New York-born singer now resident in Basel opens the evening with her expressive alternative pop.
