In a time where young bands, have got it more difficult than ever. With grass roots venues closing, indie labels disappearing, restrictions of travel hampering touring, streaming meaning that revenue for artists is decreasing almost by the day. Now they’ve got to face off with corporate giants.
Easy Life will play their last gigs under the Easy Life banner this week.
It’s a sad day for British music, Easy Life didn’t have a chance, it was a real life David vs Goliath and sadly this time Goliath won.
What should Easy Life be called next?
Big Orange Planes? Sleazy Jet? Brand Thieves? Corporate Greed?
