Why it matters

Empty rooms are killing live music.

UK live music was worth £1.3 billion in 2019, with around £260 million at grassroots level. Venues still book on gut feel — and every quiet Tuesday costs real money.

05 — Fair pay

Where every £100 goes.

A small ticket share, on-ticket advertising and optional Pro plans keep the lights on. No fan data sold, no pay-to-play — the margin goes straight back into opening new regions.

06 — Questions

Fair questions.

How much does it cost to join?

Nothing. Venues, bands and fans join free. DigMusiK earns a small share of ticket sales and advertising, plus optional Pro subscriptions later.

When does my area go live?

We're opening region by region across the UK so every launch has real venues, bands and fans from day one. Join the pilot list and we'll email you.

How do collaborator splits work?

Every track carries its credits — writers, producers, session players. When a gig or stream earns, each share pays out automatically. No chasing, no spreadsheets.

What happens to my data?

Fan signals are anonymised and aggregated before venues ever see them. We never sell personal data. See the privacy notice and cookie policy.
