​NORCO COLLEGE MUSIC STUDENTS ROCKED ON A SUCCESSFUL LIVESTREAM CONCERT

On May 22, Norco College Music student artists and alumni performed a five hour show featuring original music and live interviews. The show included music genres varying from country, singer/songwriter, hip hop, pop, folk, indie, alternative, metal, and rock. The live stream session brought 446 unique viewers, 100 unique chatters, and 1,287 live views.

“Norco Music is a vibrant community of student artists who truly support each other," said Brady Kerr, professor, Norco College music program. “We are so grateful that in a time of social distancing, our students could come together and create a livestream, interactive, virtual concert."

Originally, Music students were planning the second annual NOMU Music & Arts Festival and had to pivot when the pandemic hit. After a Zoom meeting with the Associated Students of Norco College and the Norco ESports Association, the idea of a virtual concert and concept was created — Quarantined: The Bedroom Sessions. 

The concert can be viewed on twitch.tv/norcoesports.
