Many TV shows now offer fewer live music spots for artists. This makes it harder for musicians to reach new listeners on television.

TV performances used to be very important for new bands. The band Future Islands got famous after playing on \"Letterman.\"

Fewer TV spots mainly hurt new and independent music artists. These artists need TV to show their music to more people.

New online shows like \"Outside Tonight\" now feature live music. They want to give more chances to artists and new bands.
