The UK platform where emerging artists create guaranteed intimate shows in living rooms, rooftops, studios and hidden spaces. Fans pledge, the threshold hits and the show happens.
No empty rooms. No wasted prep. No risk. Fans pledge without being charged, the show confirms once the minimum headcount is reached. Everyone shows up knowing the night is real.
Set the format, price, minimum headcount and a date window. Free to list, takes five minutes.
Full artist controlCard is authorised but not captured. Share the link with your audience and watch pledges build in real time.
Zero risk to fansCards captured, artist paid upfront, host gets a confirmed booking. Guaranteed before anyone leaves the house.
Artist paid in advanceYou don't need a venue or a booking agent. You need the people in your city who genuinely love your music and a way to let them show up and pay you for it.
Every format runs on the same model. Artist sets the price, fans pledge, threshold hits and the show is on. Pick the format that fits the moment.
A pub back room, arts space or café evening. Guaranteed crowd, full bar revenue for the venue and a proper stage feel for the artist.
Licensed venue15 to 40 people in a living room, garden or rooftop. Acoustic or small PA. Intimate by design and impossible to replicate anywhere else.
Home hostUnreleased music heard by a small group first. Q&A included. Fans become part of the story before anyone else even knows it exists.
Any spaceWatch the artist record. Ask questions. Hear creative decisions made live in the room. A seat at the table most fans never get.
Recording studioNo performance needed. Just the artist and the people who care most: a café, a pub or a corner of the city. Connection over spectacle.
Any space"Superfans are 20% of listeners but spend 66% more on live music. The tools to reach them don't exist yet for emerging artists. Until now."
