The Launch of the gigmit App
Drumroll, please… 🥁 This year, we launched the gigmit app! Sorry, it took us 12 years, but this one is worth the wait.
Powered by AI, this smart matchmaking tool is here to make artist discovery a breeze for event organisers. Whether you’re looking for a headliner or fresh talent, the gigmit app has your back. With smart recommendations and intuitive features, this app makes finding the perfect match easier than ever.
Green Music Performance
Sustainability took center stage with the launch of our Green Music Performance project. This initiative promotes eco-friendly habits among artists and event organisers, encouraging greener practices within the music industry. Re-watch our workshop on how to become a more sustainable artist here.
Game-Changing Partnerships
We joined forces with industry leaders SoundCloud and Thomann to connect our artist communities. These partnerships have given artists the tools they need to succeed, from enhanced visibility to access to professional equipment. Collaboration is the key to success, and we’re thrilled to make it happen. 🤝
Bringing Brands and Festivals Together
This year, we helped major brands find festivals to sponsor, giving them access to up to 20 million festivalgoers worldwide. It’s all about creating meaningful connections that benefit brands, festivals, and audiences alike. Learn more about how it works here.
Helping Brands Find Artists
We collaborated with top brands like Teufel, Warsteiner, Shure, Casio, Lemonaid, Yamaha, JBL, and AKG to connect them with artists. Whether it was band contests, influencer campaigns, or video productions, our collaborations brought music and marketing together in powerful ways. These partnerships empowered artists while helping brands tell their stories through music, and we’re particularly proud of it.
