LIVEXLIVE has entered into a three-year deal with the HANGOUT MUSIC FESTIVAL, which debuts MAY 19th-21st in GULF SHORES, AL, to livestream, produce and curate the festival experience to fans worldwide. LIVEXLIVE has previously livestreamed both ROCK IN RIO and OUTSIDE LANDS MUSIC AND ARTS FESTIVAL.
LIVEXLIVE will produce both the festival audience’s video experience in addition to the global live broadcast to connected devices, with a team which includes executives from MANDALAY DIGITAL GROUP, WARNER BROS., EMI, VIRGIN RECORDS, ATLANTIC RECORDS and LIVE NATION, among others. Programming will include live performance streams, DJ sets, artist interviews, as well as behind-the-scenes exclusives. Branded-content opportunities are also being developed for select clients.
The live streams and original content are available globally on all connected screens via LIVEXLIVE and its affiliate partner platforms.
“HANGOUT MUSIC FESTIVAL is a favorite of fans and artists alike, for its unparalleled beach setting and its eclectic lineups which lead to spectacular, one of a kind performances," LIVEXLIVE Chairman/CEO ROB ELLIN said, "We’re excited to be able to expand its reach exponentially and with the kind of quality production you’d expect from major studios and networks. It’s a tremendous addition to our rapidly expanding roster of festivals and network of strategic partners.”
This year's performers at HANGOUT MUSIC FESTIVAL include MUMFORD & SONS, TWENTY ONE PILOTS, FRANK OCEAN, CHANCE THE RAPPER, MAJOR LAZER, WEEZER, MGMT, MIGOS, SIGUR ROS and DJ SNAKE, among others.
