Playing is the easy part. Booking it all is the hard part.

Venues, planners and agents

Every booker has their own way of working, and keeping track of who you talked to and when gets messy fast.

The details pile up

Load-in, soundcheck, set lengths, backline and parking are different every night.

Getting paid

Deposits, guarantees, door splits and balances due on the night all need tracking.

Every gig, from load-in to final payment

Musicians deal with more moving parts than almost anyone on stage: venues, talent buyers, sound engineers, backline, set times, guarantees and door splits. GigTools gives every show its own record with the venue and contacts, load-in and soundcheck times, set lengths, production notes, fee and deposit, travel and the signed agreement.

Fill your calendar and route your tours

Keep venues and talent buyers organized with the full history of every show. Booking requests from your band page and website land in your Inquiries, and email templates and your connected Gmail make every pitch quick. Booking campaigns that send your avails to a whole contact list are coming soon.

Put your shows on your website

Copy one snippet and your public calendar appears on your band's site, styled to match, and updates whenever you add a show. Each public show can have its own event page too.

Know where the money stands

Track guarantees, deposits, balances and expenses for every gig, so you always know what's been paid, what's owed and how the year is going.

FAQ

Questions from musicians & bands

Can I put my gig calendar on my band's website?

Yes. Copy the embed code from GigTools and your upcoming public shows appear on your site, styled to match, and update automatically.

Does each show get its own public page?

Yes. Public event pages let fans and venues see the details of each show.

Can I use GigTools to plan a tour?

Yes. Add each date as a gig, with several dates and show times on one gig where it makes sense, then keep every venue, travel detail and payment in one place. Booking campaigns for sending your avails to venues along a route are coming soon.
