A cavalcade of stars is set to rock to your personal device over the weekend as part of the Save Our Stages Festival, a massive two-day event set to raise awareness for the $10 billion Save Our Stages Act that is currently in front of Congress. The event is also raising money for the countless independent live music venues that are teetering on the brink of extinction due to the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.
Miley Cyrus, Foo Fighters, Portugal. The Man, Phoebe Bridgers, Leon Bridges, YG, Brittany Howard, and The Roots are just some of the acts slated to appear over Friday, October 16 through Sunday, October 18. The festival will feature artists performing from 26 iconic indie venues across the country, including the Troubadour in Los Angeles, the Apollo in Harlem, and First Avenue in Minneapolis.
The Save Our Stages Festival (known on social media as #SOSFest) will livestream on NIVA’s Official YouTube Channel. Fans will be able to donate via a direct link on YouTube. Donations can also be made directly to the NIVA Emergency Relief Fund.
See the full festival itinerary below.
Days away from the #SOSFEST premiere, @RepKendraHorn, @MarioDB, @SenSchumer & @RepStefanik share their support for the bipartisan #SaveOurStages Act which would provide funding to independent venues who have been closed for over 7 months.
