You can find go-go music on your favorite music streaming apps. Simply search for the bands you like and follow their pages. Like the songs/albums and then let the algorithm guide you to more music to listen to follow and like. The more hours of time streaming go-go the more go-go the app will show you.
If your band is on the major apps and tagged as go-go, then your music and info will be shared to other go-go listeners and if the go-go tag gets enough streams then the algorithm will share it as a trending genre for other outside of the go-go community to become aware off. Bands should record every live performance to be uploaded to their pages so that fans can have access to all over your music and every show just like in the good old days when we had PA tapes and CDs
Improving the Go-Go Economy:
