The reality of the present situation that we face, the arts and culture community whether it be an entry level position to those at the very top, we are about to take a hit beyond all expectation. There is no information to project for the foreseeable future, we can only monitor daily changes and react accordingly.
We would love to continue bringing you awesome live performances across the internet and into your homes! Donations will help Starlite Sessions to continue building a digital venue at this time of global distancing. We are currently asking for donations. The current economic devastation that has hit the Arts & Culture Community is absolutely earth shattering for venue owners like ourselves, as well as for musicians and fans alike. If venues like The Starlite Room do not receive economic relief, venues like ours will close our doors permanently and there will no longer be infrastructure for musicians to continue to hone their craft.
“If we lose our concert industry, we lose the heart and soul of who we are as a country.”
