DMB @ Beacon Theatre Webcast on Hulu



The Dave Matthews Band will be playing an intimate show at the Beacon Theatre in NYC on June 1st and HULU will be broadcasting it live. Below is the email I received tonight from the DMB crew.

"Hulu to Live Stream DMB's June 1st Beacon Theatre Benefit Concert

We are excited to announce that Dave Matthews Band and Hulu are teaming up to present Hulu's first-ever live concert stream. Beginning at 9:00 p.m. EST on June 1st, Hulu will bring the intimate Beacon Theatre show to fans for free via a live stream at Hulu.com. The Beacon concert will take place on the eve of the release of Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King and is a benefit concert for DMB's own Bama Works Fund. Following the exclusive live stream, Hulu will offer on-demand access of the show.

The concert is one of numerous elements of Hulu's first music partnership. Beginning on Thursday, May 28th, Hulu will begin introducing DMB videos leading up to the Beacon Theatre concert, including an exclusive airing of "Scenes from Big Whiskey," the documentary about the making of Big Whiskey, behind-the-scenes footage and original and live music videos. Hulu will also air Dave Matthews Band's upcoming performances on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" and the "TODAY" show."
