With over 400 000 music events, 950 000 artist performances and 70 million audience visits in 2017 (Live DMA Survey, 2020), concert venues and clubs are the music sector’s foundation when it comes to artistic creation and the development of new talents.
As part of our What artists say campaign, we asked artists from all over Europe to testify of the important role of these stages for their careers. We are starting a series of 3 radioshows which give the word to 2 artists.
This month, we invite Finnish duo Vildá, winners of the Music Moves Europe Talent Award, to have a chat with us on their relationship with the venues who saw their birth and discuss what it feels like to win an award.
Guests: Viivi and Hildá from the duo Vildá (FI)

Interview of Laura Torre, drummer of Melenas (ES)
Music: Melenas – No puedo pensar
This month of March 2021 mark the Covid-19 one year anniversary. It’s been exactly a year since all live music venues are shut down, struggling to survive despite some emergency funds provided by the European governments. Music lovers are painfully missing the warming energy of the concerts and festivals, but, more importantly, the whole ecosystem behind the stage is in danger.
We fear that it becomes difficult to rebuild the sector after the crisis, and we are very concerned about the mental health of the staff working in venues, which continuously need to adapt without any overview of the future.
During this long year, European associations have been working on reopening protocols, calling for a clear vision all around Europe. You can find all of our statements on our website.
This is a global crisis, so what support can The European Union bring to the companies, non-profit organizations and individuals? Culture is a national competence, so how do the European institutions and the Member States collaborate to support the cultural sector?
Gabriele Rosana, Policy Director at Culture Action Europe, answered our questions.
The European music sector is a diverse ecosystem of artists, live music organisers, publishers, not-for-profit organisations and music lovers. The production and enjoyment of music has changed a lot in the past years. In this context, and as part of Music Moves Europe (the sectorial programme from the European Union), the European Commission has recently published two studies to figure out ways to better understand the sector and better anticipate its evolutions in the future through a potential European Music Observatory. One study also focuses on market trends and gaps in funding for the music sector in Europe.
How can we better collect and analyse music sector data? Where is public support missing for the music ecosystem? How feasible is the implementation of a European Music Observatory? We hope to answer these questions today with our guest Fabien Miclet, Independent Consultant in European Strategies who has worked on these two studies.

In November 2020, Live DMA was invited by Collectif Culture Bar-Bars, a French association of music clubs and very small cultural venues (mostly bars and cafés with a cultural program), to host a panel about clubculture. The outcomes of this panel, and the many other organized by Collectif Culture Bar-Bars will make up a white paper that will be sent to French authorities (municipalities, ministry of culture) in order to create a set of recommendations for the parts of the live music sector we often forget, unfortunately: the small cultural bars & cafés and the nightclubs or nighttime music activities.
As a European association for live music organisations, our network has a lot of clubs and nighttime activists in it. We will dive further in this scene, often not recognized as being part of the cultural sector by policy makers using extracts from the panel discussion we hosted.
This episodes sums up the main outcomes of the discussions. Our guests were Adriana Alcover from ASACC (Catalonia), Marc Wohlrabe from ClubCommission Berlin and board member of LiveKomm (Germany) and Isabelle Von Walterskirchen, board member of PETZI (Switzerland) and night time actor of the Zurich club scene at Rote Fabrik.

In this Live Style Europe radio show, we explain how live music venues and clubs are affected by Covid-19. Since March 2020, live music venues and clubs had to cancel or reschedule all their events, which is their core business and main source of income.
In some countries, they were able to slowly reopen, however under very strict conditions limiting their regular audience capacity and challenging the usual concert format. With no or only very little activities left, those venues have no income and fully depend on governmental support in order to avoid bankruptcy.
Venues and clubs are part of larger cultural, social, and economic ecosystem. The fact that venues and clubs cannot operate has also repercussions on artists, on the audience, on other music subsectors and all the people working connect to music and live events.
Documents & projects mentioned during the show:

• Circuito – Recently created live music association in Portugal: https://circuito.live/
• Peaceful awareness campaigns & demonstrations: #WeMakeEvents
• Music: Billy Nomates – No
The show was presented by Elisa Thoma and Juliette Olivares for Live DMA, European network for live music associations.
Every month, the Live Style Europe radio show brings you to the backstage of the live music sector to better understand how it works, listen to the ones who work and fight for great music, and discuss the main challenges they may face.
In this episode you will learn more about Live DMA’s activities: our advocacy work, our capacity-building workshops, Open Club Day or the campaign “What Artists Say!”
We will be talking a lot about concerts, but actually, our job is not to organise concerts and tours around Europe. We work to analyse how the sector evolves, and support people working behind all these stages so you, music lover, can continue to listen or practice the music you like, enjoy a night out, and see your favourite artist or discover new artists live, close to your place! We speak with people working in the music venues and policy makers to make it work in the best possible conditions.
Tune in to learn more about the backstage of the live music sector in Europe!

Open Club Day is a European-wide event aimed at live music venues and clubs. On Saturday, 1st of February 2020, venues and clubs all around the continent open their doors for free during daytime for the audience to discover these places differently. Through the organisation of a variety of activities (guided tours, disco for kids, panel presentations, workshops, coffee and board games…), clubs demystify the negative stereotypes that may be attached to them and offer people to spend time differently in their club. We had the chance to interview Marcos Vazquez from La Fabrica de Chocolate, a live music club in Vigo, Spain on their participation to the third European edition of Open Club Day.

This tenth episode of Live Style Europe focuses on the theme of sustainable development and ecology in the live music sector.
As the European Union has put the fight against the climate crisis as one of its top priorities, and recognized culture as one of the pillars of sustainable development, the live music sector all over Europe initiates projects to implement more sustainable working practices.
At the European level, we took the example of the European Music Council and their commitment towards Climate Action: to develop sustainable behaviours in their work.
We also mention DEMO, a European Cooperation Territory project developing ecology in the music sector. Read our presentation of the DEMO project here!
At national and local levels, we interviewed Esben Marcher from DanskLive on their Green Guide: a guide for concert organizers presenting concrete tips on how to develop sustainable practices when putting up a music event.
We also talked about the Muziekclub 4AD forest and the DIY and ecological philosophy of this music venue which initiated it.
We also focused on FEDELIMA‘s new “Smells Like Green Spirit” campaign, which started with the acquisition of hundreds of stainless steel gourds to supply the French music venues with and help them reduce their consumption of plastic bottles.
Enjoy the podcast!
Tracklist:
- Frustration – Mother Earth in Rags
- FLOHIO – Wild Yout
- Fatboy Slim ft. Greta Thunberg – Right Here, Right Now
In this Live Style Europe radioshow, we will dive further into the topic of gender equality and diversity in the live music sector.
We will first explore the initiatives that are put into place at supra-national levels with an interview with Dagmar Schumacher from UN Women and with Stéphanie Gembarski, from FEDELIMA, who participated in the Voices of Culture programme on “Gender Balance in the Creative and Cultural Sectors“: an international working group to reflect on, analyse and solve the gender inequalities within the cultural sector.
We also mentionned the Keychange programme, funded by the European programme Creative Europe, it is an international campaign which invests in emerging talent while encouraging music festivals, orchestras, conservatoires, broadcasters, concert halls, agents, record labels and all music organisations to sign up to a 50:50 gender balance pledge by 2022.
Then, we explore initiaitves that take place at local levels in Europe, through the inspiring actions and projects from the Live DMA members!
Projects for less gender disparities or gender-based violence for the audience:
- In the Netherlands, the live music association VNPF have won an award for their campaign Ben jé ok? (Are you okay?) which tackles sexual harassment in a positive manner, by inciting people to take care of each other.
- Another campaign which encourages sorority and taking care of others comes from Sweden with their campaign Dare to Care, by the live music association Svensk Live. They have produced resource on the subject (communication campaign, online tests…), and are working to reduce gender inequalities in the Swedish live music sector.
- In Italy, our member KeepOn Live is partner of the Indie Pride association, which aims at giving a space of expression for Queer/LGBTQIA+/Gender minorities artists as well as the audience, focusing on Indie live music to spread their message of visibilisation and inclusion to the world.
- Many other initiatives exist of which our members were partner of, such as the campaign against harassment and discrimination in festivals of the French region Pays de la Loire Ici c’est cool (Here it is cool) that our French member FEDELIMA supports.
Projects working for less gender inequalities for the cultural workers:
- The WAH project by our French member FEDELIMA is a female mentorship project which reunites an “experienced” female music worker and a younger one to exchange on the specific issues women working in music may face. It is also a resource platform to inform people about the inequalities between men and women in the live music sector and the violence women and gender minorities may face.
- Music Venue Trust partners with the PRS Foundation to encourage more young women and gender minorities to break into promoting live music. This programme will provide training, mentoring and practical support to young women and gender minorities who are passionate about live music and want to learn the skills to become an independent promoter. The project aims to offer more opportunities for women, trans and non-binary artists and cultural workers.
- Our member Court-Circuit in Wallonia (Belgium) is also part of the Scivias project, whose goal is to obtain a better representation of women in the live music sector through the artists and the workers.
- In Spain, ASACC is very active in the Mujeres en la Industria de la Musica (MIM) project, which aims to sensibilize and visibilise the conditions of women working in music. We have already talked about this project in our radioshow from October 2018, check it out if you are interested!
- In Switzerland, PETZI have worked on the Diversity Roadmap, a tool aimed at live music venues and clubs, for them to reflect on their working practices: representation of women and other minorities on their stages, how their working team is composed to represent all sensibilities and experiences… They have partnered with many Swiss associations that work for better equality and diversity in the music sector (We Can Dance It, Helvetiarockt…) It is truly a good, simple and efficient tool ! The Diversity Roadmap is now available in English!

For the last Live Style Europe radio show of the season, we would like to look back on the second year of the Live Style Europe project and project ourselves in the future by presenting our upcoming activities.
In 2017, the European Commission granted Live DMA with the European network funding via the Creative Europe programme in order to develop its project Live Style Europe: a capacity-building programme that aims to empower regional and national live music associations, as well as music venues, clubs and festivals by providing them with skills and tools for an easier adaptation to the evolution of the live music sector. It is the core of Live DMA’s activities, and we are now entering the third year of the project.
