Puts Marie and Too Mad win the award "Best Swiss Video Clip" 2019

Both awards are endowed with 5000 Swiss francs each and will be officially presented at the M4music award show on March 16 in Zurich. A total of 227 artists submitted their music videos for the "Best Swiss Video Clip" 2019. Among the 16 clips nominated for the audience award were Ay Wing, Autisti, Grégoire Poget, Meimuna, Moes Anthill, Pablo Nouvelle, Suicide Salmon, Tinguely dä Chnächt, Tompaul and Zeal & Ardor (two clips). The five music videos of ALL XS, Fabe Gryphin, Puts Marie, Too Mad and Trampeltier of Love were additionally nominated for the jury award.
 
In 2019, the jury prize goes to "Catalan Heat" by the Biel band Puts Marie and to director Simon Krebs, who lives and works in Basel and in Berlin. Laurence Desarzens, director of the HEMU-Flon School of Music in Lausanne, summarizes the jury's decision: "The video clip Catalan Heat convinces with the calm, aesthetic images of filmmaker Simon Krebs. They form a radical visual statement and contrast with the energetic song. The access to the childhood memories in Barcelona of Max Usata, lyricist and singer of Puts Marie, is not obvious in this clip, but emotional. Music and image thus combine to form an impressive whole."

The audience award goes to the St. Gallen rock duo Too Mad and the three directors Frederic Siegel, Kilian Vilim and Etienne Mory for their animated clip "Mind Invaders". The audience award was determined by online voting on the Mx3 platform.

The award ceremony will take place at the award show of m4music, the pop music festival of the Migros Culture Percentage, on Saturday, March 16, 2019, at 7 p.m. in Zurich's Schiffbau.
