HOW ARE UPCOMING ARTISTS MAKING A LIVING DURING THE PANDEMIC?

Upcoming artists typically are not rich like most famous artists are. These artists depend on their incoming paychecks to pay for their bills and necessities. Many upcoming artists are currently struggling with the upkeep of their bills and can simply not afford to support themselves while out of work.
Many upcoming artists are currently using their skill sets to create other forms of work and to connect with other professions. Musical artists were faced with the difficult task of how they would now advertise their talent to the public.
Livestreams and now very common, as artists are still able to perform and air music to their fans. Artists are having to come up with creative techniques to maintain an income in order to get by. Many upcoming artists have even set up donation drives, which have been very successful.
Another replacement made for artists are outdoor concerts. There was a list released online, which featured all of the upcoming 2021 festival tour dates. All of the events will take place outside in a socially distanced format.
