Jason's Fifty Gigs In A Day 2020

Fifty Gigs In A Day 2020 · 8 February 2020
April 2020 *UPDATE*
With the current coronavirus pandemic it has affected live music like
never before, with artists seeing their live revenues disappear, plus
the related venues all close for now and many people associated with the music industry also losing their jobs and income. Coupled with this
charities have seen their fundraising diminished as we all socially
distance and events are cancelled.
But it is not all doom and gloom as musicians are rapidly adapting
with live streaming gigs, Q&A’s, although it will only go some way
to replacing the sales from merchandise. Charities are adapting too,
with Nordoff Robbins hosting various events including streamed live from their music therapists.
So I am going to ‘piggy back’ on bands/artists doing gigs to see if
they will kindly promote the wonderful work of the Nordoff Robbins
charity, along with of course the bands/artists kind enough to mention
the charity. Plus I will also be highlighting the work of NHS Charities Together as they help support the NHS workers, their families and the volunteers.
If any band/artists (including authors!) would like to join in please feel free to contact me.
===================================================
Fifty Gigs In A Day 2020 will take place on February 8th. It will feature bands & artists that are performing on or around that date, with a couple actually hosting gigs especially for the Nordoff Robbins charity.
Please support them if you are able, either by attending one of their shows or spreading the word.
Thank you
