04For brands

Be part of the night,
not the noise

Every brand is chasing creators. Musicians earn a level of devotion and engagement that most creators never touch.

01

Reach real fans in your target markets, through the channels artists actually own.

02

Work with one artist or twenty, picked around who you're trying to reach.

03

Grassroots at scale, without losing what keeps your brand authentic.

04

Leave with a library of rights-cleared content that runs long after the tour ends.

Turning the industry on its head

“Why is the live music business so opaque? Why all the middlemen? It’s become harder and harder for artists to afford to tour and to connect with fans—the best part of our craft. Tours get canceled, legendary festivals disappear. I’m tired of big companies controlling fan data and charging for access. Let’s find another way.
