Clubhouse – Everything musicians need to know5 min read

What is Clubhouse app all about?

With the emergence of modern technology and social apps, Clubhouse is another sizzling trend followed by youngsters nowadays. It is basically an audio-only platform where people with similar areas of interest engage with one another. Clubhouse comprises several chat rooms and that too is a real-time experience. One thing that is really fascinating is the allowance feature to enter and exit whenever they want to. You can think of this app as a party hall where only introverts are allowed to step in! This party hall allows people invited to bounce from group to group, like a bridge between a live radio show and a podcast.

Some popular features which make it even more unique and enjoyable are-

• Non-recordable conversations so that you face no issue with your personal information. You will need not worry about secret discussions regarding your music copies, upcoming shows, or albums that may get leaked or hacked.
• Other social networking apps don’t allow you to invite non-participant members, but Clubhouse is regarded as invite-only.

If you really wish to spread your talent like wildfire and you’re thinking of choosing a platform to do so, the clubhouse is the right place for you! It’ll surely help you to market your music and consider a selective list of podcasts that have grown nearly 30% within the last three years.

During the pandemic surge, it was observed that there was a huge amount of growth for audio-only platforms.

What experts believe is that the current popularity will be sustained as it is through audio-only apps like Clubhouse and Spotify which stream online podcasts on-demand.

If you are an independent artist who believes in making your own career, you can benefit from Clubhouse’s platform. And as this platform is relatively smaller in size when compared to YouTube, chances of succeeding are quite high.
