First of all, just because live gigs disappeared for a while, that doesn’t mean the fans and music lovers disappeared as well.
Due to the quarantine, they are home, eager to listen to some music by their favourite artist.
It’s important that you as a touring musician are able to use these tools to keep them engaged.
Likewise if you are just a DIY music hobbyist, you can use this opportunity to connect with other music lovers.
Therefore, these services will help you achieve just that.
Besides, the number of mini-gigs being streamed online is just sky rocketing !
Above all, let’s work together and make this work for you.
