Bandsintown Presents its first LIVE Music Marathon via new Twitch Channel
This Thursday, March 26 and Friday, March 27, 8 hours per day, leading global event discovery platform Bandsintown will livestream its first LIVE Music Marathon, a virtual festival on the new Bandsintown LIVE channel on Twitch found at live.bandsintown.com. The Marathon comes hot on the heels of Black Coffee’s successful launch of the Bandsintown Live Channel last Friday March 20, with 84,500 unique viewers checking out the DJ’s set.
All donations go to the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund to assist music professionals struggling in these challenging times.
“We are experiencing a new form of connectivity between music acts and their fans. A new form of entertainment is emerging from this chaos.” ”
In the coming days, Bandsintown will also announce a regular schedule of live music programming and events to follow this week’s LIVE Music Marathon on the Bandsintown LIVE channel.
As part of its ongoing mission to help artists, Bandsintown also launched the opportunity for the 530,000 musicians registered with Bandsintown For Artists to receive free fast track status to Twitch’s world-class monetization tools for live streaming. It also launched a WATCH LIVE feature to help artists alert the 55 million registered fans on Bandsintown when their streamed events go live. Artists can post free messages to their followers on Bandsintown and schedule live streamed events with this new feature.
