Your music. BandBoss promotion, venue outreach and booking support.
A great performance starts long before the first note. It starts with someone finding your act, understanding what you offer and feeling confident enough to book you. That is where an agent can make a difference.
BandBoss has a refreshed identity and a clear focus: connecting musicians with venues, event organisers and private clients who are looking for live entertainment. BandBoss welcomes solo performers, duos, trios and bands to apply to join the agency.
There is no fee to submit your application. The aim is to understand your act, present it clearly and put it forward for opportunities that fit your music, location and availability.
7 advantages of joining BandBoss
1. Apply without an upfront sign-up fee. Put your act forward without paying to submit an application. Tell the team what you do and the kinds of bookings you want.
2. Get your act in front of venues and clients. BandBoss reaches out to venues, wedding clients, corporate organisers and private hosts, introducing suitable performers for their events.
3. Give your music a stronger promotional platform. The team uses your performance videos, photographs and act information to show clients your sound, style and what makes you worth booking.
4. Find opportunities that fit your act. Your line-up, repertoire, location and availability help the team match your act with relevant enquiries, from intimate receptions to full evening celebrations.
5. Have support with booking conversations. The team liaises about fees, timings and practical requirements, helping both sides understand the proposal. Agency commission and booking terms will be discussed before you agree.
6. Work with an approachable agency team. The BandBoss team provides a point of contact to discuss your act, ask questions and decide whether an opportunity is right for you.
7. Try the digital Live Gig Planner app for three months. Organise gig details, setlists, contacts and preparation in one place. Tick the optional trial box in your musician application, or use the separate app trial request form.
A gig planner built around the details that matter
Getting the booking is one part of the job. Being ready for it is another. The BandBoss Live Gig Planner brings event details, venue contacts, timings, setlists, equipment checklists and payment tracking into a browser app for your phone or laptop.
Use it to prepare your running order, record access and technical notes, organise the kit you need and keep the important information in one place. It is designed to support the work around your performance.

The digital app that keeps your gig preparation together
BandBoss Live Gig Planner is an online-delivered browser app for your phone, tablet or laptop. Add it to your home screen and keep your gig planning close to hand. It is a digital product, with no physical planner to carry.
- Gig details and venue contacts: find timings, addresses and key people without searching separate notes.
- Setlists and event running orders: prepare the music and the schedule together.
- Equipment and pre-gig checklists: organise instruments, PA, cables and backups.
- Venue and technical notes: plan access, power, space and sound requirements.
- Travel and accommodation planning: keep arrangements with the booking.
- Payment tracking and invoice template: stay on top of the administration.
- Merchandise tracking and post-gig reviews: record sales and learn from each event.
For act owners and bandleaders: a repeatable way to prepare bookings and organise the details performers need. For solo musicians, DJs, duos and bands: fewer scattered notes and a clearer plan before arriving at the venue.

Develop the performer behind the performance
The Pedagogy of Performance explores what performing teaches us about learning, confidence, communication and development. Written by Gemma Elizabeth Watkins, MSc, BSc (Hons), it connects pedagogy, psychology and neuroscience with experience in music and education.
- Practice and expertise: reflect on how rehearsal and experience shape development.
- Confidence, motivation and identity: explore the person behind the performance.
- Memory and cognition: consider the learning processes involved in creative practice.
- Feedback, observation and reflection: examine how performers and teachers learn from experience.
- Creativity and communication: think beyond getting the notes right.
Why buy it? The app helps organise your gigs; the book offers a deeper perspective on developing your practice. It is relevant to musicians reviewing how they rehearse, bandleaders supporting performers, and teachers or students exploring how people learn through performance.
Digital ebook: $5.99, paid once. Optional and separate from the free application and app trial. Explore the book and buy the digital edition.
