THE WORKFLOW

From research to a confirmed date.

01

Find the right venues

Search the directory or map by location, genre, venue name, and contact availability. Read the musician-focused review before deciding whether the room fits your act.

02

Save or pitch

Save a venue for later, open Quick Pitch from its venue page, or send it directly to the Booking Dashboard. Your Pitch Profile fills in the reusable details about your act.

03

Track the conversation

Pitches sent from Banger create a venue thread. Replies, follow-ups, contacts, private notes, requested dates, and booking status stay together instead of disappearing into a spreadsheet.

04

Put the show on the calendar

Confirm the final date, mark the venue Booked, and save practical show details such as payment terms, load-in time, and venue logistics.

Pitch Profile

Save your artist bio, contact details, music links, social links, expected draw, set length, and preferred pay information once. Review and edit every pitch before sending it.

Booking Dashboard

Keep each venue in one clear workflow stage. Read the email thread, reply, maintain private contacts and notes, confirm a booking, and manage the calendar.

Tour Planner

Choose your home base, must-play stops, genre, and total days. Banger builds a loop, keeps alternates available, and sends primary venues into the booking workflow.

Gig Profit

Compare guarantees and door deals against travel, hotels, crew, and merch. See the projected profit and the average attendance needed to break even.

IMPORTANT DISTINCTION

Banger tracks what Banger sends.

A pitch sent from Banger appears in the Booking Dashboard with its replies and status. If you choose Open in My Email and send through your own email account, Banger cannot track that outside conversation.

Banger helps organize the work.

It does not guarantee that every venue contact is current, that a venue will respond, or that a show will be booked. Bands still decide fit, availability, terms, and whether the gig makes sense.
