Music Habitat Launches in New Orleans | New Orleans News

Music Habitat is launching in New Orleans on September 25th, revolutionizing how indie artists, venues, and fans connect — all in one digital hub. Artists keep 100% of earnings, manage bookings, sell merch, and track royalties, while venues get booking tools and analytics. Fans discover local shows and follow artists easily. Founded by Brandon Beard, who saw firsthand how tough it is for musicians to thrive without proper support, this platform aims to level the playing field. New Orleans was chosen for its rich musical roots, with a free launch party on the 24th at Hangar 33. The rollout will expand nationwide by 2027, backed by FoxDog Studios’ Habitat Sessions podcast and live series. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
