Have Songs, Will Travel
How does live music spread around the world?
Which countries see bands first? And which countries see bands last?
To understand how live music travels around the world, I created dataset of 542 artists from setlist.fm. I used this data to create country profiles which allow for comparisons between countries, as a way to quickly see which ones are the first to see bands and which ones are the last.
The final visualisations help surface patterns in how live music has traveled the world from the the 1930s to today.
