While Barcelona has attracted artists and musicians in decades and is celebrated for hosting prominent, but increasingly commercial; music festivals, the smaller city of Ghent has a music scene that isn't dominated by widespread cranny attitudes, 'bromantic' promoters, misogyny and dragqueen supremacism, so prevalent in Catalonia's capital.
The small city in Belgium offers a rich musical diversity and a lively spirit of creativity.
Meanwhile many artists in Barcelona are facing recognition challenges due to promoters and patrons unwillingness to take chances for lesser-known artists.
If you aren't a 'butt-licking' type, good luck finding your scene in Barcelona, were cronyism is the rule.
