Who are they?
Grassroots musicians are the independent creators writing, recording, and performing without the backing of major corporate labels. They are the innovators and the risk-takers — the ones who play a 50-cap venue tonight and a festival stage tomorrow.
Why do we need them?
They are currently closing at an alarming rate. Without these spaces, artists have nowhere to hone their craft, and fans lose their best chance to experience live music affordably. Every closure is a cultural loss.
How to Support Them
- Buy their merchandise directly
- Attend their live shows in small venues
- Share their music — word of mouth is everything
- Follow and engage on their social platforms
