The context in which I originally mentioned the cost of living crisis is extremely important, and it’s disappointing that it’s been presented in this way. The venues that gave us our careers in this industry are closing at terrifying rates because of rising cost of living and corporate greed. For the past few months we’ve been working on something with the Music Venues Trust to call for protection for independent venues and artists, but more on that another time.
