FOR any of our readers who might not be aware of Rock the Lock Down, it is an online event that originally began as a community platform for acts from the Costa del Sol to take part in a music festival to cater to those in isolation but has become a worldwide phenomenon, with bands streaming live from all across the world.
The event began last Saturday, March 21, and was such a success that the organisers are back this week with an outstanding lineup of artists.
After the huge success of last week’s lockdown festival the page now has over 600,000 members thanks to the viewers in isolation and the amazing talent around the world who want to lift viewers spirits through this period of social distancing.
Seventy-two artists will perform live concerts streamed directly into your homes over 18 hours across two days via the Facebook page starting at 3pm (Spanish time, CET) and ending at 12am (Spanish time CET) today and tomorrow, Sunday March 29.
There will be three acts performing on three different feeds for 30 minutes each throughout the day with different genres during each time slot providing something different for everyone but should you miss any of it the shows will still be available to view after the event.
#Rockthelockdown ‘Spreading the love though the joy of live music from amazing artists performing your very own front room festival.’
