We used Indie on the move to book our first tour "Westcoast Wanderlust". We had a 10 day tour booked and planned, but unfortunately due to covid we had to postpone. Thanks to the connections we made we were able to go live virtually and agree to reschedule! We can't wait to hit the road again. -Siren Valley @sirenvalley
I have been on many sites and can tell you the Indieonthemove.com is a refreshing site when so many of the sites aren’t really doing much for the artist. I love that you are able to go on and look for all the different cities that you may be touring and need to add dates or fill slots. It is really great to know that the site is there and available to us as artists. I will be returning regularly to see what the latest event and available slots for tours and one nighters as well. Thanks Indieonthemove.com for being on the frontlines even in times like today. We really need you and appreciate you. Keep up the good work.

https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/loulollioI spent 10 weeks booking a 2-week tour last year and, while we had a blast, I felt like I never wanted to do it again due to the planning overhead. Decided to use IOTM this time around and I've got everything booked after just 8 days. Our pitch is more professional, our site is booker-friendly, and we're ready to do the thing we actually love doing (playing music!!).
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/bughunterbugIn the past we did all our tours DIY... NEVER AGAIN. What used to be months of planning and correspondence was done in a week all thanks to IOTM. Their ability to reach venues for specific dates made the process so much easier and also, more effective. We were able to get well paying gigs and a tour with no days off. From now on all our out of state runs are going to go through these guys.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/PhantomPhunkIOTM is a wonderful resource for independent artists and movements. Since joining in 2015, I have made several lasting connections, I have performed in various shows, I have had my music in promotions and placements worldwide. The resources on IOTM are invaluable. This site has helped my journey a great deal
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/thegreatveezupThe amount of work put into this website is incredible. I cannot even accurately express into words how much time I have saved not only in booking shows, but in promotion as well. The price is reasonable and well worth every cent plus some. Minimal effort is far from what is compiled here. Contacting the right person is only the first step to booking a show. IOTM really could’ve stopped there, because just having that information is a HUGE help. They didn’t, though. They added tips on how to approach each individual talent buyer, which genres they’re looking for, venue capacity, literally everything needed. Quick Pitch is a very useful tool and saves a ton of time, but be sure to read IOTM’s recommendations on how to use this feature so that you’re sending a great pitch (just another way they went above and beyond). What blows my mind even further is that IOTM didn’t stop at venue talent buyer info. They took it a step further, and compiled contact information for press outlets and radio in every state so that you can promote your shows. I’m literally in awe. I first started using this site years ago when I didn’t truly understand the music business, and even then it was useful. Now, that I have a much better understanding of the music industry, I realize what a gold mine this site is. Indie On The Move is a one stop shop for independent touring musicians as well as beginners. If you would rather spend your time focusing on honing your art, and less time researching a ton of venues on google only to find “info@blahblahvenue.com” instead of a booking email; then give this site a try!
Charming Disaster has booked over 200 shows across the country over the past few years, and Indie on the Move's searchable venue database is an important part of our toolkit for researching new places to play. (Less reliable sources: scrying crystal, dowsing rods, Ouija board). IOTM helps us target places that seem like they'd be a good fit, and being able to access contact info for bookers has made the Premium Plan well worth the subscription. Now we can focus less on finding places to play and more on preparing for our shows: what to play, what to wear, and what snacks to bring with us.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/charmingdisasterAs an independent instrumental artist, the landscape of getting on the road can seem daunting and overwhelming, but with Kyle's help I was able to start touring a few years ago. The Do It Together tour package was easy to setup the initial contact with key markets I wanted to break into. I was surprised at how quickly and easily the process was and the venues fast responses. If anyone is thinking about touring or playing live music and is overwhelmed at the thought, trust me I know how you feel and there is help. IOTM provides not only awesome booking services but all types of resources to help you grow your brand! Amazing job all and I will be using IOTM for all my touring needs, its the perfect website for indie touring!
IOTM has been amazing at helping me get started with my tour! I already have two bookings in Tennessee at super nice venues. Looking forward to what's to come next on my tour.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/carmenpmillsKyle has been huge for me as far as booking dates and getting my foot in the door at venues. I would recommend the Do-It-Together Tour Booking Experience for any indie artist who is starting out on their own. Kyle helped me get my EPK into shape, and really helped direct me in the right way. Learning the ropes is hard for any upcoming indie artist, and I can't say enough about how much Kyle and Indie On The Move have helped me progress. This is a great asset for any indie artist. - Brent
