This article explores the ways in which individual artists, bands, and other musicians could potentially take action to make the music industry more sustainable. Tours for musicians are vastly different in the 2020s than they were even in the 1990s and early 2000s. There's a visual component to the concert that wasn't present in the past, which not only adds to the production cost of concerts but requires a larger number of people working.
Larivee lays out a prediction of how the industry could become more sustainable. This plan includes the increase in smaller venue shows with pre-prepared equipment ready for artists. By pre-prepared equipment, this only means the bare basics of what is needed at a concert for any artist. However, the author believes in this implementation because it would make preparation easier on the artist and potentially decrease climate footprint with fewer buses and equipment on the roads.
