From the original posting
You're already producing events. We can help.
If you’re independently running live events and building local audiences, you already know what it takes. What you might not have is the infrastructure, brand power, and back-office support to do it at scale, without burning out on admin.
Sofar Sounds partners with experienced independent producers who want to keep doing what they love, but with a global organization behind them. We take on the operational complexity: payments, taxes, insurance, royalties, communication management, artist + venue advances, and ticketing infrastructure, so you can spend less time on admin. The one thing that stays with you: getting people in the door. You own local promotion and ticket sales; we handle everything behind the scenes.
About Sofar Sounds

Countless mainstage performers like Billie Eilish, Brent Faiyaz, Jack Harlow, Chappell Roan, Leon Bridges, Tank and the Bangas, Olivia Dean, YEBBA, Teddy Swims, Remi Wolf, Hozier, and Lola Young have played Sofar shows early in their careers. More than just a gig, Sofar empowers artists by providing a professional platform that spans both the physical and digital worlds, handling everything from booking and promotion to filling the room, while granting artists access to an ecosystem of opportunities including brand partnerships, a powerful content engine, and global media placements.
