Radical Sabbatical was created by Clocktower Experiences, a small business based in St. Louis, Mo., founded by two women with deep experience in live event production.

“During this particularly challenging year for the live music industry, we decided to invest our resources in a safe and entertaining event that will also provide meaningful human connections,” said Young. “We are also particularly proud that this event is putting hundreds of people back to work during a time that many in this industry are struggling so much.”
