*This is a special English spoken episode of The Live Coaches
What causes the magical energy that can occur at live shows? Why do people like to go to concerts? And how can insight in your audience’s motivations to come to your show, help you to transform your performance into a memorable experience?
Live shows can be magical. An energy can take hold that is hard to find anywhere else. It can cause people to completely let go, scream their lungs out, dance, mosh and break through their usual comfort zones. But just as often, that energy is missing. To explore what this magical energy is and how you as an artist can create it, we invited cultural sociologist and audience researcher Femke Vandenberg.
Femke currently works as an assistant professor of audience research at the University of Groningen. Before that she did her PHD research into the collective potential of live music. For this research she spent years visiting concerts and talking to audiences to find out why they went to concerts, what they liked about them and what they got out of it.
In this episode we discuss what she found. You’ll hear why some music genres are better at bringing people together than others, why audience interaction is so important, why it’s harder for smaller artists to get a crowd to the same energy levels as bigger artists - ánd how to overcome the obstacles that are in the way and reach your maximum live potential.
