Stop wasting your time and money in a desperate effort to manually keep your Dropbox, Google Drive, spreadsheets and song notes in sync. There's a better (and cheaper) way to keep your set lists in check:
Features
Our tools help your business look professional and make clients feel confident working with you. And when you give your team the right tools, they'll be happier and get more done – which means more gigs and money for everyone.
Hate your inbox? Us too. So, we scrapped it altogether. Send and receive emails directly inside booking files so that lost emails and manual filing are things of the past.
CRM
Effortlessly manage client relationships from inquiry to booking - all in one place. Exceed expectations by executing on every detail so that 5-star reviews are your new norm.
Contracts
Easily generate custom contracts for each gig using tokens that automatically fill in important details such as event details and payment terms, saving you time and ensuring accuracy.
Billing
Our solution simplifies your music business by integrating client invoices with your bookings and gig calendar. Easily create, track, and collect payments without getting lost in complex accounting software.
Team Communication
Efficient communication starts with context. By posting messages directly inside bookings or boards, everyone knows what each message is about and no message is ever lost.
File Sharing
Attach recordings and sheet music to setlists. Store other files (e.g., contracts, invoices, reservations, riders, load-in details) directly inside bookings for easy access.
Shared Calendar
Replace calendar invites with gig offers and an auto-book bot that obeys your call order preferences and fills your band roster fast. Members only see gigs they’re booked for.
Set Lists
Leave your folder at home. Keep your team on the same page and share PDFs, MP3s, keys, tempos, videos, notes and more, all in one place.
Task Management
Organize folders of tasks cleanly within bookings. Each team member will only see tasks assigned to or created by them, so everyone can stay focused and clutter-free.
Payroll
Pay on time, every time. Payout reports and reminders help you track who has been paid and who hasn’t. You can even export reports for taxes.

Don W
Booking Manager, Powder Springs GA"The BOS team took the time to walk me through the system and things have been AWESOME! Our customers have been impressed but not only our response time but our ability to follow up on things. BOS has been a game changer for my team...I wish I would have found it sooner."

Frequently Asked Questions
We've answered a few questions here, but hit the chat button to connect with us if you've got more!
-
What are Booked Roles?
A role is any instrument or job position in your music company or band. For example, in a 5-piece rock band, the Roles you may have could include 'Vocalist', 'Bass', 'Drums', 'Guitar' and 'Keyboard'. When you create bookings, you'll need people on your team to fulfill these roles, so you'll need to book them.
With Back On Stage, you can automate this using our Auto-Book or Shotgun booking methods. Our robots send gig offers and reminders to your team, and track all the responses for you, saving you lots of time and stress. You just set up your preferred call list for each role and leave the rest to us.
Booked Roles are consumed only when our robots successfully book someone for a role. We deliver results, or you don't pay! Note that you can also book roles manually by simply adding roles to bookings and selecting a musician. This does not use your booked roles credits. -
Why am I billed based on booked roles?
We want to help you grow your music business and provide the means to measure your success! Arbitrary factors like your company's amount of members, songs, contacts, or bookings may not reflect an accurate picture of the success of your music business.
The true indicator of growth is how many members you can regularly book onto your gigs - Booked Roles.
The more members you book, the harder our Auto-Book System works for you, saving you valuable time and money.
-
How many Booked Roles do I need?
It depends.
Booked Roles are counted in the month the role is booked (not the month of the actual booking). For example, if Dave accepted your gig offer on August 15th for a gig in August, it will count toward your Booked Roles Credits for August. If you sent Dave the gig offer in March and he accepted it then, it would count toward your Booked Roles Credits for March.
On a monthly subscription, your Booked Roles Credits reset every month. On an annual plan, your credits last the entire year. This means that if you have a seasonal business with concentrated hiring, an annual plan provides more value. If your role bookings are consistent throughout the year, a monthly plan may suit you.
To calculate how many Booked Roles you need per month:
(Number of gigs per month) X (Number of musicians per gig) = Booked Roles
If you're unsure, you can start on our basic "Leader" plan and see how it goes.
Frequently Asked Questions
We've answered a few questions here, but hit the chat button to connect with us if you've got more!
-
Is there a limit to how many songs I can upload?
Nope. You can upload as many songs as you need to your music library.
-
Is there an app to download?
Back On Stage is a web app, meaning there is nothing to download and you won't find us in the app store. You can access our app on any device with an internet connection. We recommend saving our app to your home screen on your mobile device for easy access.
-
Can musicians access set lists and sheet music offline?
Because Back On Stage is a web app, an internet connection is required to access set lists and sheet music. If your gig is in a place where the is no internet, we recommend using the "Download All PDF" function inside Performance Mode to download all the PDFs you need and store them locally on your device before you head to the gig.
-
Is there support?
Yes. We offer chat and email support for your entire team, available from 9am-5pm Mon-Fri PST.
-
Is There A Guarantee?
You bet! We are so confident that you'll love Back On Stage that we have a 90-day money-back guarantee. If, for any reason, you decide the BOS is not a great fit for you, just let us know within 90 days of your free trial ending and we'll refund all your subscription payments. How's that for great service!
