Melody Merge
First Annual Virtual Concert
Table Of Contents Introduction
We are thrilled to introduce you to Melody Merge, a ground breaking virtual concert event that seamlessly blends the intimate, acoustic vibe of NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series with the electrifying energy of Bonnaroo. This unique experience brings together a diverse lineup of artists and bands from various genres, each performing in a setting that reflects their individual style and musical identity. Melody Merge is not just a concert; it’s a celebration of music, creativity, and connection, all from the comfort of your own space.
What is Melody Merge? What to Expect?
Description of Melody Merge
Melody Merge was born out of a desire to create an immersive, interactive experience that transcends the limitations of traditional live music events. In a world where virtual has become the new normal, we sought to combine the best aspects of live performance with the accessibility and flexibility of digital platforms. The result is a festival that doesn’t just showcase music but invites you to be part of it.
Each performance is intimate, with artists performing in spaces that reflect their personal tastes—be it a cozy living room, a vibrant studio, or an outdoor retreat.

One of the defining features of Melody Merge is its interactivity. This isn’t just a series of videos; it’s a fully interactive experience. As you navigate through the 16-page program, you’ll find links to live performances, exclusive behind-the-scenes content, and special messages from the artists themselves.
A Blend of Styles and Sounds Inspired by the stripped-down, personal performances of Tiny Desk Concerts, Melody Merge offers a platform for artists to connect with their audiences on a deeper level.
But we didn’t stop there. Taking a cue from the expansive, multi-genre nature of Bonnaroo, Melody Merge features a diverse lineup that spans indie rock, folk, hip-hop, electronic, and more. This eclectic mix ensures there’s something for everyone, no matter your musical preference. The world of each performer.
Each page is designed to not only inform but to engage—inviting you to click, explore, and immerse yourself in the world of each performer.
Throughout the festival, you’ll have the opportunity to discover new artists and reconnect with old favorites. Each band or artist has been given a dedicated page within the program, where you’ll find their bio, links to their performances, and additional multimedia content that offers a glimpse into their creative process. Whether it’s a video diary, a curated playlist, or an interactive Q&A, each element is designed to bring you closer to the music and the people behind it.
