REVERB: Helping SXSW & Luck Reunion Decarbonize

Team REVERB headed to Texas last month to help decarbonize festival stages at South by Southwest and Luck Reunion, facilitate discussion on the future of climate solutions in live music, and fundraise for environmental causes in partnership with Billboard. It was a busy and fulfilling week, made all the better by great music, delicious food, and a much-needed bit of sunshine in the midst of Maine winter.

After our trip to Texas, we can officially confirm that greats like Willie Nelson and Bootsy Collins sound even better on diesel-free stages! As part of the Music Decarbonization Project—REVERB’s campaign to directly eliminate carbon emissions created by the music industry—we teamed up with Overdrive Energy Solutions to power SXSW’s Community Concert stage and all the stages at Luck Reunion with solar-charged intelligent battery systems.
