October 2, 2020 Is A Hybrid Concert Going To Be The Interim Solution For The Music Crowd?
What is a hybrid concert, you ask? It’s a simple combination of a live performance with a small in-person audience that is streamed live to music lovers who picked an online ticket to watch the event remotely. It’s working from home, only for your audience, while your biggest fans (or the most adventurous ones) still get the chance to be there in person and experience your music at the venue.

September 25, 2020 Coronavirus And The Music Industry: This Startup Wants To Help Tackle The Problems
The music industry is one of the sectors that the coronavirus has hit the hardest. With concerts, festivals and other live events being canceled worldwide, many music professionals are seeing a historically unprecedented loss of income. Artists, organizers, promoters and many others were quick to resort to live streaming and engaging fans online, thus strengthening the importance of digital media and increasing competition.

Back in May, Right Chord Music launched The Takeover, an online music festival championing incredible independent artists. The Festival showcased 49 artists, from 11 different countries playing live on Facebook. The Festival presented by BOSE generated over 600,000 video views and raised over £4,000 for Nordoff Robbins music therapy.
Now The Takeover returns as an online music conference. It’s the first online music conference designed specifically to support the challenges faced by unsigned artists. Tickets on sale now via DICE
