As states start to let businesses reopen under limitations, music industry organizers are testing out new models of smaller, socially distant concerts. Its about creating an experience for live music again, said Couri. It would give people hope that this can be repeated again and again in many different places.But the path ahead for live concerts hasnt been easy.
