For Bands
Your next fan is searching "live bluegrass tonight"
Catberry helps them find you, with a band page on the open web and your gigs in front of folks looking for live roots music.
Folks wanting to book you can reach you from your page.
Turn on booking inquiries in backstage and your band page gets a contact form. Anyone who wants to hire you writes to you right there, and their note lands in whichever inbox you choose. Someone who finds you on Catberry doesn't have to go hunting for the right person to ask.
Your fans can follow you, and back you.
Folks can become a fan right from your band page and hear about your shows. Set up a paid tier in backstage and the ones who want to can back you with a monthly contribution, paid to you through Stripe.
Fair questions, straight answers.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing. Catberry is fully funded by Guided Rails LLC, so band pages are free. Every band on the site makes it a better place to find live music, and that's the whole idea.
- What do you take from fan payments?
- Stripe takes its card processing fee, 2.9% plus 30¢ on each payment, and Catberry keeps a 10% margin. The rest goes to the band.
- We've got a website, a Bandcamp, a Facebook. Why another page?
- Keep them all, they're doing their job. A Catberry page isn't a replacement. It's one more door, set where people already come looking for live roots music, easy for search engines to read and open to folks without accounts. And it points people right back to you, your music, and your shows.
