Backstage with Crew Nation is a video series launched by Live Nation in conjunction with the Crew Nation Fund. While the majority of crew remain out of work due to the shutdown of events, the series highlights the voices that make up the resilient live music community and spotlights relationships between touring artists and the backstage crews that help them make their concert dreams a reality.
