What musicians are saying:

"Top Left Booking assisted me in creating a tour that was profitable, fun, and successful."

Top Left Booking was a key factor in making my tour a success. As an independent artist, it can be hard to be able to keep track of everything going on in your life AND be able to write hit songs. The key to that is finding the perfect partner to help plan your tour. Top Left Booking assisted me in creating a tour that was profitable, fun, and successful. I will 100% be using Top Left Booking again for my next tour.

"I have been more fluent and efficient with getting dates booked and that's exactly what I was looking for"

Top Left Booking has created a tool that has eased stress on artists doing it alone. Being able to see what venues and promoters are in what area, and being able to get directly to their contact info does wonders when it comes to booking shows and making connections. I have been more fluent and efficient with getting dates booked and that's exactly what I was looking for.
