The Trace Live showcase was launched in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The first concert featured Sauti Sol in a bespoke event that saw them rock the stage for over 3 hours.

The second concert was cancelled on the day that Kenya confirmed its first case of COVID-19. In a well-received twist, Trace launched Trace Live online concerts because the show must go on.
