eMusic Live to exclusively livestream Hangout Music Festival
globally
Expansion of partnership with AEG Presents to air global
livestream of award-winning music event
7digital (AIM: 7DIG), the global leader in B2B end-to-end
digital music solutions, is pleased to announce that its eMusic
Live venture has once again partnered with AEG Presents to
exclusively livestream this year's Hangout Music Festival in the
US. The festival will feature some of the world's biggest artists
including Maren Morris, Kane Brown, Leon Bridges, Illenium, Sublime
with Rome, and many more. This latest collaboration follows eMusic
Live's successful livestream of AEG's Cali Vibes, the world's
premiere reggae festival, in February this year, reflecting the
deepening of the relationship.
The eMusic Live platform is the first-of-its-kind platform for
the live music industry to stage virtual concerts and create unique
artist-to-fan experiences. Unlike other festival livestream
platforms, eMusic Live creates an experience that matches the live
event much more closely. Each artist receives their own unique
event page that is fully branded and customised to each individual
artist brand, merchandise and music.
Hangout Music Festival is taking place in Alabama, US, this
weekend. With a diverse line-up of over 50 artists spanning the
pop, rock, hip-hop, electronic, country and more, genres, the live
event has attracted globally renowned performers. In addition to
the livestream and merchandise offering, eMusic Live's platform
will feature community elements such as an interactive scheduler,
next event recommendations and a chat function for fans to share
their experiences.
AEG Presents is the world's largest live entertainment company
and an authority in live music. With a portfolio of premier music
festivals, marquee concert venues and in-house content development,
the company has multinational reach, promoting festivals and tours
across Europe, Asia and North America. Hangout Music Festival is
but one of the festivals that AEG Presents promotes, with others
including Coachella Music & Arts Festival and Stagecoach in the
US, as well as All Points East and American Express presents BST
Hyde Park in the UK. This multinational reach leaves this
partnership open to further expansion.

website .
Paul Langworthy, CEO of 7digital, said: "In furthering our
relationship with AEG Presents, a world leader in the music and
entertainment industries, we will be working with some of the
biggest artists in the world and cementing eMusic Live's position
as the platform of choice to support and serve world-class artists.
Setting eMusic Live apart from other music livestream providers,
our platform is purpose built to prioritise the artist and maximise
fan engagement and commercialisation. We look forward to continuing
our relationship with AEG Presents."
Bret Heiman, VP of Global Partnerships, AEG Presents added:
"Following our successful Cali Vibes livestream with eMusic Live,
we are excited to partner again to livestream Hangout Festival. As
a company, we believe strongly in artists' brand and vision, and
eMusic Live allows each artist to individually showcase their
brand, merchandise, and music in a festival livestream environment.
With eMusic Live's ability to closely replicate the live event,
they were the clear choice for Hangout Festival's livestream."
