A Game-Changer for the Live Music Scene!

Gigroad is a really exciting app for anyone involved in live music. As a band, it’s great to see a platform that helps connect us with venues and fans. The ability to book gigs and manage events in one place is a game changer. It feels like Gigroad has a lot of potential to shake up the industry, and I’m excited to see how it grows. Definitely a tool worth keeping an eye on!

Can you browse by location?

It looks like a cool platform but I really just want to see venues based on my location. Right now I can only see new venues etc or search by I am assuming name. It would be a hide help if nearby venues gigs and musicians could be filtered or featured.

I’ve been saying…

This is it.
I want to thank the app developer(s) for this music app. You have no idea what you have on your hands yet.

Local ‘no-names’ never have a shot because they don’t have the right marketing for their product. You usually can’t blow up if you don’t spend the dough up.

This changes everything.

The status quo will never be the same if you optimize this app for the right consumer aka. the bands and the fans. You have found the gold mine. You just need the base to buy it.

If you will, do us all a favor and develop this app the right way. Most developers get in such a hurry that their app ultimately fails to live up to expectations. You, the developer(s) have the opportunity to steadily pace yourself and make this into the genuine piece of modern music that it can and should be.

I look forward to being one of the first to discover this app and will be excited when your app becomes the next big thing in artist development.

Thank you for taking the time to invent something genuinely creative and innovative in music. That is incredibly hard to do in the age of technology.

Good luck.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate your review! You really identified exactly what Gigroad is all about: evening the playing field. Taking live music out of the clutches of the rip-off corporations and back in the hands of the people who really matter: the artists and fans. The way to get rid of Ticketmaster is to make it obsolete. Throughout history, the greatest music scenes always spring up organically. I think Gigroad can make this happen on a larger scale than ever before. I will defintly do my very best to make Gigroad the greatest app I can, and thank you so much for getting involved so early! If you think of absolutely anything that I can do to make Gigroad better please let me know (mark.mckelvie@gigroad.com)! You are part of making this great, and I sincerely appreciate your support!

Great

I love the idea and the design and layouts are great, but I wish that it were easier to find gigs and stuff. I don’t mind searching key words, but I think an Instagram style layout with gigs that I can scroll through without having to type key words. This is especially because it hasn’t had enough time to flourish and not enough exposure so finding keywords means picking dozens of words and hoping something near you comes up. I overall absolutely adore this and it is quite genius. I’m very nitpicky so for me to have little to no complaints is a lot! Can’t wait for this to expand. You guys rock

You Rock! Thank you so much! You're absolutely right about the Instagram style layout for displaying Gigs - Great Idea :) I will definitely be making that improvement ASAP.

Coolest idea I've seen in a while

Cannot wait for this to take off. This is exactly what a lot of struggling local bands need to jumpstart them. excited for the future!

great idea but can’t even construct a profile bc of bugs.

Can’t even make a full profile without glitches. ugh
