IOTM helped Mak Daddy Revue book multiple gigs in the Midwest and our hometown of Louisville, KY. They were prompt, professional and friendly. IOTM also trained us for how to introduce ourselves to new clubs resulting in repeat gigs. We could not more highly recommend their services for any indie band in search of quality gigs at reputable clubs. Great service, great people and best of all...proven results. Rock on IOTM!

Indie On The Move has greatly helped our touring endeavors. We were able to independently book a Midwest Tour, and followed that up with some East Coast dates. Quick pitch is what I found to be most helpful as well as the relevant info listed on each venue!

Hello, my name is Blaq$Money, a hip-hop artist currently based in Pennsylvania. I discovered IOTM (Indie on the Move) six months ago and, after reading countless testimonials and researching the artists, I finally committed in September. As an independent artist, I’m always cautious about scams and broken promises, but IOTM has been different—it delivers results. My biggest goals include generating income through shows, reaching real audiences (not just streams), and building a base of 1,000 supporters. Kristen, my IOTM rep, gave me a clear, step-by-step guide to structure my career, specifically as a hip-hop artist, with no pressure or upselling. Now, I’m setting up a 9-market tour from January to March 2025, and within just 30 days, I’ve locked in 6 of 16 dates with real venues. For indie artists, IOTM is invaluable; use it strategically, stay focused, and set your goals to make your dreams real!

"Thanks to IOTM, I have been able to complete a streamline search of finding direct contacts for venue bookers across NYC! As an independent artist, having accessibility to IOTM's platform is crucial in order for me to strategically plan for current and upcoming shows at venues that I'd like to perform."

After playing in local and touring bands for 20 years, I finally decided to go the solo route but was having difficulty breaking into outside markets as a solo act. While I had used Indie on the Move’s Premium service to book tours with my previous band, not having name recognition in my new project proved difficult when it came to booking tours. I decided to try the Pro Services and am so glad I did. The initial consultation process was exactly what I needed. Working with Josh, he helped me tighten up my website and socials which really went a long way in presenting a more professional sheen. I then worked with Kyle who guided me through the booking process, providing insights on routing, market options and more. Next thing I knew I had a West Coast Tour on the books for an affordable price. The Indie on the Move team is truly looking out for independent artists and I’m here for it.

The members of Poppy Roscoe have been using IOTM for years in different bands, and IOTM has always been a professional, reliable source for discovering and sourcing new venues and artists alike. IOTM’s Do-It-Together (DIT) model is not only an excellent deal for the price, it’s also proved to be an invaluable asset for Poppy Roscoe to book larger and more involved shows, both locally and nationally. The IOTM staff has been incredibly helpful throughout the venue/band booking process for our most recent tour, and have gone above and beyond to help with market outreach in all facets. IOTM has truly been an indispensable resource in helping Poppy Roscoe take the next steps in growing our band and expanding on our musical journey. Whether you’re a seasoned band or just starting out as an indie artist, IOTM has the expertise and knowledge to connect you with the touring world! Poppy Roscoe would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone at IOTM, and wish the best of luck to all the musicians partnering with IOTM! -Poppy Roscoe

I really can't speak highly enough of the Indie on the Move. I had used their website to book some of my shows years ago, and the experience then on my own was the best way i found as an independent musician to get a foot in the door with a lot of venues on my own. Then, life changed and touring stopped but then years later life changed again and I was ready to play out again in 2024. Going into this I was worried I would struggle to get gigs that would pay decent enough to cover my fuel expenses and have some profit left over. It seemed like an impossible mountain to climb. Using their pro services and ala carte market selection I have booked over twenty shows for myself this summer and fall. Thus far through the summer, the trend in terms of guarantees, and tips from the venues I have booked with has been very positive, not perfect but it is a place to build and grow from. I'm currently booking additional shows for the fall and making plans for where I'd like to try to go in 2025. If you are tired of trying to do this ALL on your own and could use a little help the pro services seem worth their weight in gold for getting the ball rolling with booking shows whether its for a tour or weekend warrior stuff. The initial investments has a little sticker shock, but its super professional and helpful for getting things set up in a professional manner. Booking shows and trying to get paid for them has always been the daunting part of playing shows, this year it feels more doable than it ever has and i'm excited to continue to work with them into next year. -J.

"If it's your first tour or your one hundred and first tour, Indie on the Move is truly a priceless resource. The time and care it took to list all this information on so many venues is admirable and IOTM has done the entire independent music community a service by maintaining a site like this. I started using the site back in 2011 and it helped me achieve my goals of being a full time traveling musician. I for one do not take all the hard work and dedication that goes into this site for granted and if you are a part timer trying to do shorter regional tours or a full blown road warrior on the road non-stop, this is the one site that can keep the wheels turning. Thank you Indie on the Move!"

Hi this is Henry from Denver based instrumental duo, "Circadian Melodies", and I can not say enough about how helpful Indie on the Move is. We were looking to finally make the jump to playing shows outside of our local market and IOTM gave us the tools we needed to make it happen. We started by pitching our tentative tour itinerary and they gave us realistic advice as to how to make our vision a reality. Within our timeframe to make the project a success, we were able to contact venues in the desired area we wanted to play, organize cool shows with cool local and touring acts and most importantly, hit the road!

In this time where so much is in flux, people are struggling and finances are challenging, the idea of touring can feel so scary. To be honest, I was unsure if I could take the plunge into planning a summer tour this year - mostly because of the emotional toll of not having time to research venues as much as I would like. Working with IOTM to plan my tour this year was such a balm for my anxious soul. I felt so taken care of every step of the way, and they took so much guesswork off my plate. That sounds over the top, but its true - and also, within days of sending pitches I had booked in most markets where I was hoping to play. I feel easy and excited about tour now, and I am so grateful.
