Without a doubt, hands down the BEST resource I've found for booking my tours!!! As a new artist with a fervent passion for reaching as many people as I can with my music, I rely on IOTM for helping me find the best venues for me and my music. My guitar player has been a full-time touring musician for over 6 years, booked over 1,500 shows in that time, and used IOTM for the vast majority of the the shows booked during that time. IOTM just makes sense and is an independent artist's best friend. Trying to research the best venue for me in a market I've never performed and, if I'm even luck enough to find a venue that makes sense, then find the correct contact info is a nightmare without IOTM. I recommend this resource to all my peers; thank you, IOTM.... thank you thank you THANK YOU!!!!!

Hello I am Paul Collins and I have been booking my bands since 1974. My first tour was for my first band, The Nerves. There was no internet or Indie on The Move back then so I had to find out all the info on my own, I even called a police station once to try and find clubs! Nowadays with the internet and a site like Indie on The Move, booking yourself is so much easier, I rely exclusively on IOTM to find clubs in towns where I do not have contacts or if I want to see what other venues I could hit up for shows. It's easy and its accurate and I have found many clubs that have become regular stops for my band. Having the show listings is great so you can get an idea of the bands that play the venue and having the bookers email info is key and it makes getting in touch as easy as 1 2 3. My approach is simple, I tell them who I am, and I give them the date I am looking for and I include my web site so they can see what I do and where I have played. If they respond positively and we talk about a date I then ask them simply what kind of terms can I expect and we take it from there. My advice is to try and move your band out of the door deal status as fast as you can, we bands need to eradicate that form the scene we are working hard and we should get paid for it! Good luck with your IOTM experience!

Kyle did a fantastic job helping us come up with a strong pitch and with our tour routing as well. Highly recommend this service! In 2013 I booked a 5 week tour using IOTM on my own and it took me several months booking it. This service saved me so much time this time around. Thank you IOTM!

Indie On The Move has changed my booking life and kept me on the road. Their quick pitch booking system and my consultation with Kyle has more than doubled my response rate. I highly recommend the IOTM site to any musician who is serious about touring. Mason Reed www.masonreedmusic.com

I book a room and have booked quite a few runs for touring acts. IOTM serves both sides in a great way! I booked a band's first tour in the mid-1990s. (yeah, I'm old) It was out of control phone bills, tons of cash to mail press kits and amazingly tough to reach venue owners & agents. (Kids today don't realize how good they have it - ha!) What a difference 20 years and this site have made! From weekend regional runs to 6 week tours, I've relied on this site to find suitable rooms for original artists and have opened the bands I work with up to awesome new rooms, the elusive Monday night guarantee and some fantastic co-bills. The contact info, links and descriptions are almost always spot-on. Meanwhile, I've been booking a room in my hometown for nearly 6 years and have booked quite a few acts that use this site. While I've only used the 'show availability' feature a couple of times, the response generated has been fantastic. Most importantly, when in contact with the site owners for whatever reason, the response has always been quick and professional. Thanks, IOTM, you guys make this so much easier than it has ever been! cc

My efforts at booking shows in the past have gone as follows. I send out a bunch of emails to venues and get zero responses. Somewhat out of desperation I consulted with Indie On The Move a few weeks ago. They helped me refine my pitch, after which I decided to use their services to contact 7 markets. Within a day of sending out an email campaign with Indie On The Move I started getting responses from venues. Two weeks in and I've got shows booked for the next few months. These guys are super knowledgeable about what talent buyers are looking for and very helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

IOTM is singlehandedly responsible for our last two tours. Not using them would have been like throwing darts at the map in the dark. As a result we've increased our fanbase, sold more merch and booked better and better shows.

If you are willing to do the work, but don't know what steps to take give IOTM a call they were nothing short of an awesome help to me and my project Kellerville ([url=http://www.kellerville.wix.com/kellerville]http://www.kellerville.wix.com/kellerville[/url]) I was booking my first 'tour' around lake michigan with just over a month to plan and we managed to land a gig for every day we were out. But what really made it worth it wasn't them sending out emails for me. It was the knowledge from an experienced touring artist, that has been through all of this before. Small things like how to find local bands, or what words to avoid in emails. These are priceless things that I will use for the rest of my life. I can't say whether the cost is worth it to you, but for me I'd spend it over again three times as much for the courage, wisdom, and great ideas I've managed to glean out of an hour long phone conversation and a pile of emails. Thanks so much IOTM Lee Dyer Kellerville

Indie on the Move is a great tool for the independent artist, bands and labels to connect with people and get opportunities to get live shows not just in their city but around it and even further. I worked with Kyle who was very knowledgeable about marketing in the music industry especially when it comes to dealing with venues.

IOTM is wayyy ahead of every other booking listing or service out there. After having used The Indie Bible($120) and Musicians Atlas($40per month) in the past for booking my band and others I found those resources unnecessary after I started using IOTM. With more up to date contact info, the rating system and reviews are awesome resources to have, it's almost like Yelp for venues.. Sick. On top of that Kyle is great to work with and did an awesome job for us with the DIT campaign. If you're a band just getting out of your region you'll find this site invaluable.
