Our friends at Right Chord Music are always developing how they help independent talent. Their aim has always been to support the industry with new strategies without having to rely on "the man". I love their success in rebellion. Two new developments are that they've switched their Lost On Radio podcast to regular Spotify playlists and their RCMHangout Festival is making its way to Facebook Live.

Lost On Radio began as a Podcast back in 2011. Our aim was to showcase incredible new artists that were being overlooked by radio, or pushed to the late night fringes.

The Lost On Playlist will continue to champion the best new, undiscovered and under appreciated music in our inbox. Curated by the RCM editorial team it’s a democracy, if we love it, we playlist it. No radio pluggers or PRs required.

Back in 2013 frustrated with bad promoters and bad live music experiences, we decided to create a new live music platform. The RCMHangout Sessions and ultimately The RCMHangout Festival were born. Our festival became one of the first online only music festivals using Google+ Hangouts On Air. Bands and artists played live from their homes to the world via the RCM blog.

This summer we want to revisit the concept, this time harnessing the power of Facebook Live we’ll stream incredible new and undiscovered music directly into your news feed. Taking place over on the 18th-20th August we will invite bands and artists to take over the RCM Facebook page and broadcast live to the world.
