This weekend YouTube Music and the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) kick off Save Our Stages Festival (#SOSFEST), a three day virtual music festival. #SOSFEST, hosted by Reggie Watts, will include performances from 35 artists including The Roots, Foo Fighters, Miley Cyrus, Leon Bridges, The Lumineers and so many more recorded live from more than 25 of the most storied independent concert venues across the United States.

#SOSFEST supports NIVA’s Save Our Stages advocacy and relief efforts for members of the independent music community devastated by pandemic closures. The festival will stream live for free on NIVA’s Official YouTube Channel where the full line up and schedule can also be found. The festival is also a fundraiser for the NIVA Emergency Relief Fund, which will benefit independent venues in peril of shuttering permanently as they await federal relief. 

Donations can be made on NIVA’s Official YouTube Channel now.
