Musical Groups & Artists in the US

Musical groups and artists have struggled in the last few years, as a decline in revenue was exacerbated by the outbreak of COVID-19. The pandemic strongly affected the industry and its ability to generate revenue from performances during this time. A sharp decline of revenue in 2020 occurred as attendance at large events became a health risk. The pandemic led many states to prohibit large gatherings like concerts, but the introduction of the vaccine in 2021 allowed for artists to resume performing live. Revenue generated from live events recovered significantly in 2021, but revenue continue to grow through the 2023. Overall, revenue declined at a CAGR of 2.8% to $7.1 billion over the years to 2023, including an anticipated increase of 0.9% in 2023
