RequestIT — One App for the Whole Show Whether you're in the crowd, on stage, or running the venue, RequestIT brings fans, musicians, and venues together in one app — no separate downloads, no separate accounts. FOR FANS Find live music near you, follow your favorite bands and venues, and request songs in real time — right from your seat. Scan a QR code at any show to jump straight into the request queue, no app required. Like songs to push them up the queue, get a heads-up the moment your request gets played, and if the band's got a Venmo, say thanks with a tap. FOR MUSICIANS Run your whole show from your phone. Create events with a shareable QR code, manage your live request queue, and mark songs played or skipped as you go. Build a song list so fans can pick from what you actually play, control how requests come in (freeform, list-only, or both), and schedule your go-live window so requests open exactly when you want them to. Manage every band you play in from one account. FOR VENUES Get your venue listed and discoverable. Upload your show schedule, get a QR code fans can scan to see who's playing, and hear directly from bands looking to book a night.
