ABOUT

Isol-Aid is an award-winning online music festival and community, profiling musicians – who would otherwise have had shows, launches, tours, and other appearances planned – to create content and stream live and online to an audience of their already devoted fans, as well as new fans who are there waiting to discover and connect.

The festival was created in the days after the coronavirus pandemic reached Australia, when it became immediately clear that musicians and their teams would be heavily impacted by the cancellation of their shows and tours. At that time, it also became clear that the music community would have to disperse and could no longer meet up at small or large venues, record stores or festivals, to participate, support, buy merch, sing and dance to their favourite artists.

Isol-Aid helps musicians – who would otherwise have had shows, launches, tours, and other appearances planned for this period – to stream live and online to an audience of their already devoted fans, as well as new fans who are there waiting to discover and connect.

Isol-Aid encourages provides people with community and incredible cultural nourishment, and a whole lot of other fans to commune with in the comments section of the feed.

Isol-Aid puts musicians first by supporting artists who aren't able to play in front of live audiences at the moment, but we care about the music community as a whole. Which is why we are asking online festival attendees to please donate whatever they can to the website. All proceeds are distributed among artists.

Isol-Aid is for a community whose livelihood and sense of belonging usually happens through togetherness and live events. We are facilitating that, but in a new way. And we're calling on all music lovers to stream, listen, buy, and donate whatever is within their means.

So grab your device, charger, snacks and water bottle, and we'll see you at the festival this weekend. xx

HELPING RAISE FUNDS TO

SUPPORT THE ARTISTS

We love that our festival is free to watch, but we do ask online attendees to help support the artists if you can. 100% of whatever you donate will go directly to the Isol-Aid artists and their teams.

As you know, the loss of touring and live performance income has caused financial strain and even strife for many in our music community. Throwing in even what you’d normally pay for a beer or two at the show will make a huge difference to these acts. And we’ll be eternally grateful, too!
