In a world where everything is free, the work of the artist has been devalued to the point where indie musicians are in crisis. Live performance is one of the few places left where artists can truly gain more control, connection, and financial security. But booking and playing shows takes work.

We want to change the way the live music scene works. We want the artists to be in the driver’s seat. We want art to be valued and artists to be paid. We want people to be connected in their neighbourhoods by art that means something to them.

Both the live and recorded music industries are trying to max out the same customers: the superfan. Higher DSP prices, vinyl and merch, rising ticket costs. Each sector sees the fan as a separate audience. But it’s the same wallet. And it’s being drained three times over.

Last year, Luminate tracked 184 million songs—25% of them (46M) had zero plays. With 105,000 tracks uploaded daily to Spotify, releasing music has never been easier, but standing out has never been harder. Direct-to-fan relationships are more critical than ever. How are you building yours?

Tip for Artists: Stop stressing over what to post and start living in the comments! Engage thoughtfully in the threads and posts of the community you’re targeting. A genuine comment can be just as powerful as a post—it builds connections, shows you’re invested, and keeps you visible.
