It would seem that as much as we are missing going to live gigs, musicians are missing performing them but, as lockdown marches on, more and more are coming up with new and innovative ways to fill the void.
One of the latest examples is Nick Cave’s newest enterprise, Bad Seed Teevee – a 24/7 Livestream of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' music videos, interviews, live performances and other rarities via YouTube.
Cave announced the new channel on social media saying, “if the world wasn’t in lockdown, I’d be onstage in Toulouse, France, singing my heart out with the Bad Seeds. But I’m not. I’m doing the next best thing … sitting at home watching Bad Seed Teevee. Pure non-stop joy!”
Featuring “videos, interviews, live performances and more” the stream promises to continue “for the foreseeable” future – it’s a big promise! But, if anyone has the kind of compelling catalogue required to back it up, it’s Nick Cave. Tune in via the Bad Seed TeeVee website here, or check out the YouTube channel below.
As with all upcoming live performances right now, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have been forced to postpone their 2020 tour dates until next year, but thanks to the internet, you can now see more of the band than ever before.
