How to Find New Music
One of the most difficult things about being a new music fan is finding the best new music to listen to. I had my own personal struggles when it came to finding out when artists were dropping their albums or singles. After a few years of searching I have found the best (or at least my favorites) sources for music updates.
Best Music Update Sources (With links)
One World Together
The most famous musicians and celebrities this planet has to offer have come together for the One World Together event. Musicians are putting on live stream performances from their homes while talk show hosts Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon host the event.
2020 Album Update
We are a few months into the 2020 year and a lot has happened. Unfortunately, the year did not start of great. The Covid-19 outbreak has put a damper on the beginning of our year, but good music will not be stopped.
If you want to check out my ranked list of albums for 2020 (So far) go here.
Music Twitter Quarantine
To pass the time, the members of Music Twitter have been polling each other on their favorite artists and albums. The polls have led to a lot of fun discussions on music but also a lot of unnecessary arguements.
Musicians April Pranks
Many musical artists have been pranking their fans with fake album announcement. This is because of the long term tradition of April Fools day.

5233ok Postpones Album
With all of the recent Covid-19 events circulating, bad news like this is not at all surprising. For 5233ok, staying home has made it very difficult to work on his upcoming album Oliver Grape.
The aspiring pop star has relied heavily on borrowed equipment to make music. Equipment that he has not been able to work with since the closing down of Nicholls Campus.
“I don’t have any good microphones at my place. The sound quality wouldn’t be too great if I did anyway.”
5233ok
The album was supposed to be released to all streaming platforms in early April. However, the new release date is currently up in the air.
Live Streaming Concerts
Artists and bands have resorted to using social media platforms for impromptu concerts (from home). Because of the Coronavirus outbreak, most concerts were forced to be cancelled. To keep spirits high, a lot of these artists have set up concerts on Instagram live for their fan base.
Be on the look out for your favorite musicians on Instagram. They may be the next to follow in this trend.
