Redsalt, an angel investment organisation, is funding SoundWave Creative to develop a platform connecting artists, venues and live music audiences in Sierra Leone. The tool is intended to make it easier to book artists, provide venues and sell tickets, Sierraloaded reports.
Redsalt, an impact-first angel investor, has invested in SoundWave Creative, a platform intended to connect artists, venues and audiences in Sierra Leone’s live music sector. The funding will be used to build the events platform, Sierraloaded reports.
SoundWave will enable venues to list their spaces and availability, artists to find places seeking performers, and the public to discover concerts and buy tickets. The project aims to make bookings easier and help venues earn revenue from available slots.
The investment is Redsalt’s second in Sierra Leone. In 2025, the organisation signed a $75,000 agreement with Freetown Waste Transformers, a waste management company founded by Ami Dumbuya. SoundWave Creative is also working with Kolaborate Platforms, a digital services agency based in Kampala, Uganda, which is part of Redsalt’s portfolio.
