youbloomConnect: Get Matched With the Gig of Your Life!

17-Apr-2019 By Anthony Flowers

Get Matched With the Gig of Your Life!

Now-a-days we’ve been hearing an awful lot about all these dating apps: you go through a bunch of various people, you swipe right on the ones you like and hope to get matched with the love of your life. But what happens if we take this idea and put it in the context of the music world? Make sure to keep reading to find out.

.

..

….

The Perfect Match

Here at youbloom, we call this concept “Artist Matching” and it works pretty much the same way. Well, minus the swiping part. youbloom designed it specifically for artists, bands, and talented people, to make sure you get a perfectly tailored gig every time!

Creating The Global Music Village

It might sound complicated, but it’s really not. We do most of the work for you! Once you’ve signed-up as an artist with youbloomConnect, we search the youbloomConnect database to find artists similar to you. At this point, we consider the music genre, location, musical goals, etc. After the initial due diligence, you’ll be notified of the person or band we think you’d match well with.

Now For the Fun Part

Let’s just say both of you accept the match… this is where all the fun begins! In a nutshell, you promote the band you matched with and vice versa. Then, you perform together. Perhaps, you’d work together. Maybe, just maybe, you’ll hit the road for tour together and most importantly you might make a friend for life! Helps you build a music network and co-market with fellow artists around the world. Not only will you grow your fan base, but there’s a good chance you’ll make connections within the music industry along the way.  It will create countless opportunities for you and your band to play your music, tour and get paid!

The Bigger Picture

This is how we help the independent music industry connect and how we create The Global Music Village! So become a part of it today! Sign-up as a youbloomConnect artist and get matched for the gig of your life!

 

Cheers to live music!

Show Tickets: Live Music Can Be Highly Affordable For Fans

07-Apr-2019 By Tanay Mulukutla

 

 

Live music is conceivably one of the most exhilarating experiences one can ever have. Having said that, show tickets can burn quite a hole in our pockets, and some might even argue that it’ the most expensive activity they indulge in. This is true in most cases, but at a fundamental level, live music can be a highly affordable option for fans. Furthermore, the independence that comes with an emerging live music scene has everything to do with how you as a fan contribute to it, and interestingly, all it takes at times is a pint’s worth! Local music promoters have come a long way and know exactly what it takes to make it all accessible and affordable to their fans.  A recent wave of gigs at unconventional and/or secret locations has been on the rise to create an appetite for live music within their community, and much to our advantage they are ALL easily accessible making show tickets absolutely affordable.  At youbloom, we’re all about paying it forward to our global village aka community! We, therefore, urge you to stay tuned to know what we’re cooking up for you. There’s going to something for everyone!

By that token, if you are an individual craving live music in your vicinity, get on your social media platforms to explore every avenue in order to contribute to this growing trend in more ways than just being present at a show. The possibilities are endless!
Here’s an interesting read on how you as a fan or even an artist can campaign for your local artists!

If you want to get more involved in your local music scene and reach out to like-minded artists and music lovers across the globe, youbloomConnect is the place for you! Go ahead and sign up to know more.

youbloomConnect: First Step Towards a Successful Gig!

22-Mar-2019 By Anthony Flowers

Whether you’re a solo vocalist, a DJ or in a band, the music industry is a tough place to work in and there’s a lot of people trying to “make it”, just like you. How tough is it exactly? It’s actually pretty simple, let us do the math.

Revenue is usually not shared!

Approximately 75% of all revenues in the music industry go to the top few hundred artists recognized as household names and are controlled by major record labels. 20% of the revenue goes to approximately 750,000 actively gigging professional artists and only 5% of all revenue goes to roughly 10 million+ emerging artists. This is where youbloom steps in.
