In a search for viable solutions to this major problem, the last few weeks have seen the music industry trialling a variety of measures for how to safely bring gigs back (along with all of the livelihoods that depend on them), in a world still living under threat of Coronavirus.
As a musician and activist, Beans on Toast, has of course been readily involved.
The video for his new single
Save The Music was filmed at The Clapham Grand (a 120-year-old independent music venue facing permanent closure), where Beans recently made history by performing at the UK's
first indoor independent live gig since lockdown began, playing alongside
Frank Turner and
Ciara Haidar (read more about it on
Frank's blog).
In keeping with the message behind the single, Beans
will be playing We Are Not A Festvial, at Pippingford Park, Nutley, in East Sussex.

Written, recorded and released from lockdown, 'Save The Music' is available now.
