What started out as a simple text bemoaning the pandemic became Sophia Production’s virtual music festival “bummerfest” held last month.
Juniors Sophia Barber and Sophie Moser both majoring in music industry and co-founders of their production company Sophia Productions had found out in December that a concert that they were planning was likely going to be virtual and experience budget cuts because of the pandemic.
“We were texting each other on the side and [saying things like], ‘This sucks. What a bummer, they should rename it to bummerfest,’” Barber said. “And then Sophie’s like, ‘Oh wait … that’s a great idea, we should definitely do that.”
