Turn Live Audiences Into Long-Term Fans
HelloBand is a fan engagement app for musicians, bands, DJs and live performers that gives your audience one simple way to interact with you before, during and after the show. One QR code lets fans send messages and song requests, leave digital tips, view upcoming gigs, follow your social channels and join your fan email list.
Live Music Should Create More Than a Moment
A great performance gets someone's attention. The challenge is turning that moment into an ongoing connection. Traditional social media asks fans to find you later, follow another account and hope an algorithm shows them your next post.
HelloBand gives performers a direct connection with the people already standing in front of them. Your audience scans a single QR code and instantly reaches your customized fan page without needing to download the HelloBand app.
Engage Fans in the Moment
Give your audience an immediate way to interact while their interest and excitement are at their highest.
Make Shows More Interactive
Fans can send messages, request songs and participate in your performance directly from their phones.
Build an Audience You Own
Encourage fans to join your email list so you can stay connected without relying entirely on social media algorithms.

Everything You Need to Connect With Fans at Live Shows
HelloBand combines several essential fan engagement tools for musicians into one easy-to-use platform.
Live Fan Messaging
Let audience members send private messages directly to your device while you perform, without publishing your personal phone number.
Song Requests
Turn your HelloBand page into a digital song request tool so fans can participate in the show directly from their phones.
Digital Tipping
Make cashless tipping easy by connecting fans with the digital payment providers you already use, including options such as Venmo, Cash App and PayPal.
Promote Upcoming Gigs
Show fans where you're playing next, provide venue information and make upcoming shows easy to add to their calendars.
Grow Your Fan Email List
Give fans a simple Follow option that lets them share their name, ZIP code and email address so you can grow a direct fan database.
Connect Everything
Send fans to social profiles, music platforms, merchandise, booking information, websites and other destinations from one customized landing page.
Social Followers Are Valuable. Direct Fan Relationships Are Better.
Social media is an important part of music marketing, but musicians do not control social algorithms or how often followers see their posts. HelloBand helps you create a more direct relationship with people who discover you at live performances.
Instead of simply asking someone to follow another social account, give them one destination where they can interact with you immediately and choose to stay connected.
- Capture fan email addresses at live shows
- Promote future performances directly
- Give fans quick access to all your social channels
- Send fans to your music, merch and booking pages
- Create ongoing relationships from one-time performances
Turn Every Performance Into a Growth Opportunity
