Lion Babe toured 11 countries over 6 continents in 6 days - virtually

New York r'n'b duo Lion Babe has just finished their “Around The World, At Home: Virtual World Tour” playing 12 shows in 11 countries over six continents in six days. They treated it like a real tour from a logistical sense - soundchecks and rehearsals, virtual meet and greets, and virtual press runs in each market - in order for their fans to get the best of it. Each venue agreed to Lion Babe take over their IG channels, and fans were only allowed to RSVP for the show corresponding to their place of residence. The concerts were free of charge. Jillian Hervey and Lucas Goodman told Forbes how their experience as independent artists has uniquely prepared them for moments like this - “We’ve always needed to have the ability to know that we don't have to rely on getting products and renting things, and that we can be really productive on the fly if an idea comes or an opportunity arises like this one. We're just playing all the roles; it definitely takes a lot of work, but it's exciting and affirming to know that in this time we've been capable of doing it”.
