Nomadica Project is an independent London-based live music and cultural platform focused on immersive, artist-led and community-driven experiences.

The platform aims to support meaningful collaboration between artists, performers, audiences, venues and creative practitioners through carefully curated live programming rooted in atmosphere, cultural connection and creative exchange.

This policy outlines the general approach, expectations and collaborative principles that guide artist and performer participation within Nomadica Project activities.

Nomadica Project approaches collaboration as an open, respectful and non-exclusive creative relationship.

The project values:

• Artistic freedom and individuality

• Cross-cultural and interdisciplinary collaboration

• Ethical and transparent communication

• Long-term creative community building

• Grassroots live music culture

• Thoughtful and immersive audience experiences

Rather than operating through restrictive structures, Nomadica aims to create an environment where artists can participate freely, develop connections organically and collaborate through shared artistic vision and mutual respect.

Participation in Nomadica Project activities is entirely non-exclusive unless otherwise agreed separately in writing for a specific project or event.

Artists and performers:

• remain fully independent

• retain ownership of their creative work and identity

• are free to collaborate with other organisations, venues, agencies or promoters

• are under no obligation to continue future collaborations with Nomadica

• are not automatically represented, managed or contracted by Nomadica outside individually agreed event arrangements

Similarly, Nomadica Project remains free to independently curate future programming according to each project's direction, operational capacity and artistic suitability.

Nomadica Project operates through selective and curated programming intended to create immersive and meaningful live experiences.

Programming decisions may consider:

• Artistic compatibility and musical direction

• Cultural and creative alignment

• Audience experience and atmosphere

• Event pacing and flow

• Technical and operational feasibility

• Venue suitability

• Collaborative potential between artists and disciplines

Submission forms, conversations, artist research or collaborative discussions do not guarantee selection for future programming or events.

Collaborations with artists and performers are generally organised on a project-by-project basis.

Depending on the activity, Nomadica may arrange:

• Live performance opportunities

• Collaborative showcases

• Immersive and multidisciplinary events

• Artist research and discovery initiatives

• Promotional collaborations

• Creative discussions and networking opportunities

• Touring or production-related coordination support

Specific event details, responsibilities and operational arrangements may be confirmed separately through written agreements where required.

Nomadica respects the creative identity and artistic independence of all collaborators.

Artists retain:

• Full ownership of their intellectual property and original material

• Creative control over their artistic direction and performances

• Freedom regarding branding, image and external collaborations

• Independence regarding career and professional decisions

Nomadica does not claim ownership, exclusivity or long-term control over participating artists or performers.

Nomadica Project aims to foster respectful, collaborative and inclusive working environments.

Artists, performers and collaborators are expected to engage professionally and respectfully with:

• Audiences

• Venues and promoters

• Technical and production teams

• Creative contributors

• Staff, volunteers and collaborators

Discriminatory, abusive, exploitative, threatening or unsafe behaviour may result in the suspension or termination of collaborative activity.

Nomadica Project recognises the financial pressures affecting independent artists, grassroots venues and emerging live music ecosystems.

The platform aims to support fair, transparent and respectful working practices wherever operationally viable, including:

• clear communication regarding fees and expectations

• transparent event agreements

• realistic budgeting discussions

• responsible operational planning

• awareness of PRS reporting responsibilities where applicable

Where financially and operationally viable, Nomadica will aim to prioritise:

• guaranteed artist fees

• fair ticket split structures

• transparent financial agreements

• sustainable event planning

Where possible, guaranteed fees combined with percentage-based ticket splits may be explored to support fairer artist compensation and shared event growth.

However, as an evolving independent grassroots platform, some projects may operate under limited or experimental financial structures depending on:

• venue conditions

• production costs

• funding availability

• ticketing capacity

• collaborative arrangements

• event scale and risk

Where fixed guarantees are not operationally possible, artists will always be informed clearly and in advance if a project is proposed under alternative structures, including percentage splits after agreed expenses.

Artists remain entirely free to decline or withdraw from opportunities prior to formal agreement if the proposed structure does not align with their expectations or requirements.

Nomadica does not support exploitative pay-to-play practices or restrictive participation models.

Artists remain responsible for ensuring they are appropriately registered with relevant royalty collection organisations where applicable.

Nomadica Project recognises merchandise as an important source of income, artistic identity and audience connection for independent artists and performers.

Where operationally possible, the platform aims to support commission-free merchandise opportunities alongside post-performance audience interaction and informal networking.

Venue or operational limitations affecting merchandise activity will always be communicated in advance where possible.

Artists remain responsible for:

• Their own merchandise stock and pricing

• Payment handling unless otherwise agreed

• Relevant permissions or licensing where applicable

• Setup and pack down within agreed timings

Nomadica Project does not aim to profit from artist merchandise sales.

Artists and performers are expected to communicate technical and operational requirements as early as reasonably possible to support smooth event coordination.

Technical information should ideally be provided at least 14 days before an event. In shorter-notice situations, a minimum of 7 days is strongly recommended.

This may include:

• Technical riders

• Stage plots

• Input lists

• Hospitality requirements

• Performance schedules

• Backline requirements

• Access or setup considerations

Where agreed within the project scope, Nomadica Project may assist with technical advancing preparation where documentation is unavailable.

Artists remain responsible for the accuracy and timely communication of their own technical and performance documentation unless separate support has been agreed in advance.

Clear communication and cooperation are essential to fostering positive working relationships and delivering live events for all parties involved.

Nomadica Project values cultural exchange and cross-cultural collaboration between artists, audiences and creative communities.

As the platform evolves, Nomadica is exploring ways to help reduce some of the financial pressure associated with independent touring and international collaboration.

This may include collaborative accommodation support, reduced-cost arrangements and partnerships with wider creative and cultural networks where operationally viable.

No formal international support structures or touring guarantees are currently provided unless explicitly confirmed for a specific project or collaboration.

Nomadica Project continues developing through practical experience, collaboration and ongoing creative experimentation.

The project may document selected collaborations, performances and behind-the-scenes processes for promotional, archival or educational purposes.

Artists and collaborators may be featured through photography, video content, interviews, playlists, social media activity or other promotional material connected to the project.

As an independently developing platform, certain formats, partnerships and initiatives may continue evolving over time.

Artists remain responsible for ensuring they hold the appropriate rights to any materials provided to Nomadica for promotional use.
