The Diffraction is a publication that aims to report on the live music industry to the benefit of attendees, bands, and venues alike. It’s a delicate ecosystem. We aim to cover the big and the small, with a clear understanding that there are real differences between a local DIY show, the Taylor Swift juggernaut, and the Phish/jam band experience. We will do our best to cover these meaningful differences. It proprietor is Keith O'Brien.

Tiers
Our plan is to always offer a free tier of The Diffraction*. And at this very moment in time, everything is free. But eventually, there will be a paid tier, in which we hope to offer many extras, bonuses, goodies, and prizes.
