Find who you need. Book them properly.
Search by role, genre or city: a vocalist in Mumbai, a tabla player in Chennai, a mix engineer anywhere. Book acts for your event, or find people to make music with. Built for India's independent music industry.
Logging your own gigs is free forever. A plan is only for being found by people you do not know yet.
Booking music in India is still done the hard way
Three things are broken. Everything ShoutOut does is a fix for one of them.
It runs on WhatsApp chains
Finding a tabla player in Chennai means asking three people who know someone. Even booking agencies call the current system unreliable and opaque.
FindableSo the market becomes searchable. Every role, genre and city, and a public page for every person in it.
Nothing is written down
The fee, the date, the sound requirements, who pays for travel. All of it lives in a chat thread, so the disagreement happens after the gig.
In writingSo every deal is recorded. Quote, date hold and rider, timestamped by both sides before anyone travels.
The people who played are not named
Session musicians on some of the biggest records in the country have no public record that they were there at all.
CreditedSo credits are permanent and public. Everyone who was in the room is named on the work, and can prove it.
What that looks like for you
Same three fixes, three sides of the same market. The tag on each line tells you which problem it came from.
