Pain points being addressed by GenRock

India has become a hub of talented musicians. Unfortunately, majority don’t have enough knowledge of how to proceed and make a living utilizing their respective talent. There are a plethora of independent musicians in India who have top-notch skills as well as talent but due to a dearth of opportunities, platform and guidance, their gift couldn’t find manifestation in the form of success.

The impediments faced by musicians are in the segments like song – recording, song – distribution, creating a professional music video, audio production and financial constraints. Large music platforms like Spotify are encouraging and assisting musicians in India to reveal their talent in front of the world. However, this is the second stage. Acquiring knowledge about music and creating good music is the priority.

Though the trend is changing in India and people are recognizing independent musicians and their songs, the trend is restricted to metro cities. In tier 2 and tier 3 cities of India, the majority of people are unaware of how to distribute music and do not have many options to upgrade their skills.

Further, independent musicians often keep releasing their music on major music platforms but do not get many opportunities for live performances. Even if their music becomes popular and is appreciated by the audience, they have to struggle to get gigs.

About the mission and vision

The mission of GenRock is all about changing the music scenario in India by providing relevant services under the same roof while creating an e-learning platform. The vision is to bring a revolution for independent and aspiring musicians in India – from learning to earning a livelihood.

Exclusive service portfolio

At present, GenRock India is providing gigs, distribution services, instruments on rent, audio and video production, music consultation and jam pads.

The founder has announced that GenRock will launch an e-learning platform by the end of this year. The e-learning platform will be available to everyone above 5 years of age with the option of recorded and live one to one sessions.
