Let's support musicians right now with a weird virtual music festival
March 19, 2020
We're making playlists on Spotify and YouTube to raise awareness about the devastating effect Coronavirus is having on musicians.
We’re devastated by the effect Coronavirus is having on musicians. Starting with the cancellation of SXSW, this disaster has had a domino effect on most of the ways musicians and their teams and crews get paid.
To spread the word about the help musicians need right now, we’re making playlists on Spotify and YouTube featuring artists who’ve had their incomes impacted by Coronavirus. We’re just kicking these playlists off though, and now, we need you to pick up where we left off.
If you (or an artist you support) had to cancel a show because of COVID-19, head over to our Twitter page and send us a track to add to these playlists. These playlists will be constantly evolving, so be sure to check back as they grow.
Listen and watch below. Also, if you're a creator whose livelihood has been affected by Coronavirus, or if you want to donate to help out, visit our new artist grant program, What the Fund.
