NZ MUSIC INDUSTRY COVID-19 UPDATE- 3 APRIL
The effects of Covid-19 continue to provide a great deal of uncertainty and raise a lot of questions
for the music community. There are many challenges ahead, and while we all try to adapt to this new normal, we want to assure you that the music industry bodies are operating at full capacity, and continuing to meet twice a week to share plans, actions, ideas, and resources to try and reimagine the future.
We wanted to provide music whanau with a further update as we head into the weekend, with a few pieces of good news that might be helpful at this time.
