that was an issue i was having with the artist i chose instead
"should i go with the one people are slightly more likely to already own, or the more interesting if more difficult album"

What I’ve found interesting about the picks so far is that they aren’t easily classified into distinct sub genres. Not-quite-or-at-least-not-just jazz, not-simply-Rock, a-bit-of-all-The-Metal, and unexpected-throwback-songwriter-pop. I’m looking forward into seeing how this goes!
And I really started paying close attention after Lou Reed was already basically confirmed. But the threads since then, I’ve discovered other bands and singers I had never heard of before and am now big fans of!

i'm leaning very much towards funk, hip hop, or blues, because some people have considered nicole atkins country soul and unless its some older electronica there is a chance its not that since most electronic music is low on lyrics

Could it possibly be some type of Latin American music?
possibly, just not on that list in the clues list
(so not a HUGE album from mexico.. but it definitely could be from latin america)

Looks like Chillon castle, definitely. It could point to Montrex because it is near tgere on lake geneva. It seems the only connection to the festival is the bill evans album cover. It might be the hint, but could also poi to something else.To me, that looks like the cover for Bill Evans' Live @ Montreux

Final answer.

While digging around a google-hole (Bill Evans --> Eddie Gomez --> Steps Ahead --> live albums -->....) I discovered the very neat Steps Ahead Live in Tokyo 1986. If you guys get a second, I'd suggest giving it a listen. It's like some strange unholy mix of jazz, rock, funk, and 80s stuff. I don't know if I love it, but it's certainly out there while at the same time being very listenable.
Instead of Montreux I'd go with the "Castle" hint.
Wamdue Projet - King of my Castle is confirmed. We'll actually the album's name is Program Yoursel. Close this thread.

Fun fact: Tina Turner renounced her American citizenship and became Swiss. So Ms. Turner is in play!
