Zut hits the right note with Manchester singer

North west video agency, Zut, live streamed the launch of the new EP from Sarah Whatmore as she played a live acoustic set to fans at The Whiskey Jar in Manchester’s Northern Quarter on Thursday (23rd March).

The former Pop Idol finalist commissioned the live broadcasting team at Zut to stream the EP launch using the Facebook Live platform.

The hour long performance has been viewed by more than 2,000 Facebook users and the video is still available to watch on Sarah Whatmore’s Facebook page.

Chris Holmes, director of live broadcasting at Zut, said: “Sarah delivered a fantastic performance to the crowd at The Whiskey Jar and we are delighted that she handed us the brief to live stream the event.

Manchester-born singer, Sarah Whatmore, said: “I wanted to use the Facebook Live platform to launch my new EP but it was vital to make sure that my acoustic performance was delivered as a high quality professional broadcast.

“The team at Zut were fantastic and I have already had some excellent feedback from fans and people within the industry who have watched the Facebook Live broadcast.”
