« The Secrets Of Marketing Macklemore & Ryan Lewis' "The Heist" from Manager Zach Quillen | Main Living Indie Expands To UK With Live Streamed Alaska Campus Show Living Indie is a live streaming service that works with indie bands to present live video streams of concerts for internet-connected devices. Until now they've been focused on shows in Spain. This weekend they live stream their first London show featuring Alaska Campus. It's a great deal for musicians since Living Indie provides their services for free, sending a video crew to the show, with the hopes of building a monetizable platform for viewing. The basic concept is straightforward: "If you’re a singer or band playing indie, indie/rock or electronica, and especially if you’re already a social media rock star, we’d love to hear from you. If it turns out we’re a good fit, we’ll cover all production costs, while you’ll have a live online gig for your fans and a shiny new recording of one of your shows. " Future monetization is planned to include "showing ad-supported gigs for free, charging a small fee for ad-free shows, and offering a full subscription model, too. " So Living Indie is investing a lot upfront in the belief that they can build a monetizable platform. OnStage Setup from Living Indie To date Living Indie has live streamed and archived 15 shows shot in Spain. On April 12th they live stream their first concert from London featuring Alaska Campus, The Phantom Runners, SABATTA & The Buzzard Orchestral. Living Indie bills itself as the " Netflix of Live Concerts . " Except they're shooting every movie themselves. More:
