Sideman connects local musicians with local bands and the venues they play, in your town, or the next one. Send a request, lock in the payout, done.
Set your availability and let local bands find you. Every request shows the venue, the time, and the money up front, so you can say yes with confidence, in your home town or on the road.
Get notified the moment a band leader wants you, by text and email.
The agreed rate is on every request and locks in the second you accept.
Traveling or relocating? Go on the market wherever you land and pick up local gigs.
Build a roster of local players, see who’s available for the date, and send requests with the payout attached. Need a sub in a new city? Find one there. No group texts, no chasing, no double-bookings.
Invite from a roster that shows who's free, booked, or blocked for the date.
