A number of music industry organisations have expressed concern that the new tariff will leave some grassroots artists out of pocket, at a time that many are relying on such events to make a living amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Such streams have also been a revenue booster for venues struggling with ongoing closure orders due to the coronavirus, and been used as a means of raising money for various charities.
