How It Works

Apply to Host

Join the movement of passionate homeowners giving artists a platform to share their music. By applying to host, you’re helping support original artists from Nashville and beyond. Plus, you’re bringing your community together for an unforgettable experience! We’re looking for well-connected individuals who love music, community, and creating memorable nights.

Set Up Your Event

Once approved, you’ll set up your first event via your dashboard, and start inviting your friends and neighbors. We make it easy by providing everything you need, including promotional materials and an event page where guests can purchase their passes. Every pass sold goes toward covering the cost of the event, so there’s no cost to you. Hosting one of these exclusive concerts gives you the chance to share in a truly special experience.

Enjoy the Show

On the day of your event, you’ll get to sit back and enjoy a private concert featuring rising artists who are eager to share their stories and music. These intimate, Nashville-style listening room events are all about supporting original music and helping artists reach new audiences. By hosting, you’re contributing to an artist’s journey and giving your community something they won’t find anywhere else.
