Since launching in September of 2017, more than 25 emerging artists have joined Big Break in the earliest stages of their career, including Cautious Clay, Yungblud, Bailey Bryan, Omar Apollo, Noah Kahan, Sarah Shook & the Disarmers, Boy Pablo, and The Marias.
Continuing its mission to help artists build an active live fan base, Big Break artists receive free promotion across Bandsintown’s digital platform.
“Big Break has given us a huge opportunity to reach Omar’s fans in a way they’ve never been reached before,” said Seth Nuddle, Tour and Digital Lead for Omar Apollo. “In a day and age where there are countless shows, and countless artists, Bandsintown’s Big Break program has allowed artists to stand amongst the crowd.”
Since joining the program in September of last year, Omar has signed to AWAL, headlined sold out shows nationwide, grown from 5,933 Bandsintown to 21,184 trackers (a 357% increase), and seen a 156% increase in monthly Spotify listeners.
