Milwaukee band Sleepersound’s UK release of their In Medias Res album on Shore Dive Records has been getting noticed with press and international radio. On May 16-17, Britain’s Independent Music News will host an online streaming Lockdown Festival. It’s a fundraiser for the UK Music Venue Trust assisting small music venues to remain viable during the COVID-19 crisis.
The Milwaukee band will play a 30 minute set that will be streamed and available after the initial airing. “Sleepersound has been building its infrastructure to stream live and recorded shows,” says drummer/engineer Dan Niedziejko. “This is a flattering opportunity to take our first steps at that and support a worthy cause. It is really nice to have a buzz going in the UK for our album. It seems like we've struck a chord!”
