How HouseShow Works
HouseShow connects musicians, hosts, and fans to make intimate live music happen. Here's how each role works.
For Musicians
Play real rooms. Build real fans.
What you do
Create your profile with Spotify, YouTube, or SoundCloud links. Browse the venue radar to find hosts within 100 miles, then send a booking request with your proposed date and ticket price.
What you get
A dedicated ticket page for every show, automatic Stripe payouts, and a direct relationship with your audience. No middlemen, no bookers, no pay-to-play.
Why it's worth it
House shows convert listeners into lifelong fans. Intimate rooms mean real connections, merch sales, and a fanbase that actually shows up next time. You keep the majority of every ticket sold.
For Hosts
Turn your space into a venue.
What you do
List your space with photos, capacity, and neighborhood. Musicians will find you on the venue radar and send booking requests. You approve the ones you like and set the terms.
What you get
A cut of every ticket sold, a curated cultural experience in your own home, and zero upfront cost. HouseShow handles ticketing, payments, and splits automatically.
Why it's worth it
You become part of the live music ecosystem without the overhead of running a venue. Great hosts build reputations and get repeat requests from top artists.
For Fans
Discover shows you can't find anywhere else.
What you do
Browse upcoming house shows by neighborhood or artist. Buy tickets directly through HouseShow. Show up, enjoy the music, and discover your next favorite artist.
What you get
Access to intimate, one-of-a-kind concerts in living rooms, backyards, and lofts. Small crowds, great sound, and artists who remember your face.
Why it's worth it
These shows sell out fast and never happen twice. Every ticket supports independent artists and the people who open their doors to live music.
