Putting live music on is difficult enough.
You're booking the bands, paying the bands, moving the furniture, hoping the weather doesn't kill the walk-in.
You shouldn't have to publish the same gig into another dozen databases just so people know it's happening.
If we can find your gigs, we'll try to list them.
Post them wherever you already post them: your Facebook page, your website, the local listings. We're built to find gigs where they're already announced, connect them to your venue, and put them in front of people nearby who are looking for exactly what you're putting on.
A pub with a band in it is a music venue too.
Grassroots music doesn't only happen in dedicated music venues.
It happens in pubs, bars, social clubs, hotels and back rooms. Sometimes it's an originals night giving new artists somewhere to be heard. Sometimes it's a covers band filling the room on a Saturday night.
Both matter. Both put musicians in front of people. Both give people a reason to go out, stay for another drink and come back next week.
If you regularly put live music in front of an audience, you are part of the live music ecosystem is built to support.
