Streaming live from a studio in Los Angeles, Tate McRae will begin a string of
live performance videos on February 24 with a live set featuring her new single
"she's all I wanna be," released on February 4. BIA will follow with a
performance video on March 3, with "Set The Stage" culminating in an upcoming
grand finale performance from The Kid LAROI*.
To bring fans even closer to the Sony Music artists they love, The Kid LAROI,
Tate McRae and BIA will each invite their followers to participate in the "Set
The Stage" challenge. Fans in the United States will be able to submit artwork
of the artist's song lyrics that will then be turned into dynamic, visual works
that the artists will perform within during their "Set The Stage" live video
performance.
The performance videos with 360 Reality Audio, production diaries and
unreleased behind-the-scenes content of all three live performances will be
shot with Sony's flagship digital cinema camera -- the VENICE 2 and FX9
full-frame cameras, and will be released throughout the campaign.
"I'm beyond excited to partner with Sony and bring my fans in on the fun," said
Sony Music Artist The Kid LAROI. "My fans have quite literally changed my life
and I want to connect with them in new ways. With my first global tour coming
up, I wanted to take this opportunity to share this experience with my fans,
putting their voices at the center of my work."
Each day, fans will be invited to check out Sony's global YouTube channel to
watch exclusive, behind-the-scenes content of their favorite artists as they
prepare for their live performances. Performance videos will be brought to life
using Sony's cameras including its new flagship cinema camera VENICE 2. The
VENICE 2 builds upon the success of the original VENICE and features the best
overall image quality with natural skin tones, highlights that roll off and
expanded dynamic range. The videos will also be re-mixed in 360 Reality Audio
to create a lifelike music experience for fans.
"Providing fans with a deeper connection to their favorite artists and their
music through technology is the cornerstone of Set The Stage," said Shiro
Kambe, Senior Executive Vice President, Corporate Executive Officer of Sony
Group Corporation. "We are creating exciting new content by pairing talented
artists and innovative technology to deliver an experience that only Sony can
provide."
The action kicks off on Thursday, February 24, when viewers can tune in to
watch Tate McRae's live "Set The Stage" performance on Sony's global YouTube
channel (
