The music industry is suffering. In order to draw attention to this, numerous artists support the campaign "Without art & culture it gets quiet".
Since the beginning of the corona pandemic in early 2020, artists and artists have been "trapped in a steady and actual lockdown," says the Universal Music record company about the "Without art & culture it's going to be quiet" campaign, which is intended to draw attention to the situation. With the closure of the clubs and concert venues, artists had "been deprived of an important source of income". "Tours are currently almost universally postponed to the end of 2021 or later. After a year of privation, there is still another ahead of us."
However, there is hardly any help for those affected, the statement continues: "The result is existential fears among artists and small labels, for whom it is simply not enough to simply publish more music." With the campaign, those affected want to speak out clearly once more. Artists, bands and creative people who are part of "Without Art & Culture it will be quiet" will publish their song on the subject this Friday. For them it's about "making a statement for art and culture as well as showing the flag for the industry. A loud action that strikes soft tones and is intended to underline the importance of art and culture for the country, the economy and for each individual are – on and behind the stage ".
