LiveXLive Partners With iHeartMedia To Stream Upcoming Events

LiveXLive Media Inc. Monday announced a partnership with iHeartMedia to livestream the 2019 iHeartRadio ALTer Ego taking place at the historic, “Fabulous” Forum in Los Angeles on January 19, 2019.  LiveXLive will announce an additional livestream in partnership with iHeartMedia in early 2019.

ALTer Ego, now in its second year, will feature the biggest names in Alternative Rock including Twenty One Pilots, The Killers, Muse, Weezer, Rise Against, Bishop Briggs and The Revivalists, and the event sold out in less than a minute of being on sale to the general public. Proud partners of the 2019 iHeartRadio ALTer Ego include Hulu and Simple Truth.

iHeartRadio ALTer Ego is part of iHeartMedia’s roster of nationally-recognized events including the iHeartRadio Music Festival, the iHeartRadio Music Awards, the nationwide iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Concert Tour, iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina, the iHeartCountry Festival and the iHeartRadio Wango Tango. 

“Our mission is to bring our global audience of music fans the ‘best seat in the house’ for musically diverse concerts by the most popular artists,” Rob Ellin, CEO and chairman of LiveXLive said.  “iHeartMedia, with its massive reach across radio, digital and social, and its culture-defining marquee events such as ALTer Ego, is undeniably a perfect fit.”

“iHeartRadio ALTer Ego is the premier nationwide alternative music event of the year,” said John Sykes, President of Entertainment Enterprises for iHeartMedia. “With tickets having sold out immediately, our partnership with LiveXLive will give music fans across the country the opportunity to view this livestream on any device.”

In addition to performances, LiveXLive will livestream original content created around the artists and the events. 

LiveXLive plans to stream more than 27 music festivals and concerts across the globe featuring over 350 hours of live content during its 2019 fiscal year. The company has quickly expanded its live opportunities to include single artist, award shows, tributes and other cultural events.
