GigFinesse

A few months ago, Jim reached out to us with a big challenge—booking live music for his hotel bar had become increasingly difficult due to no-shows and inconsistent scheduling. GigFinesse stepped in to streamline the process, providing reliable solutions. See how we’ve turned things around for Jim.

We’re thrilled to announce a major milestone: Over $5 million in payouts to our artist community! This achievement represents more than just a number—it’s a testament to our mission of empowering artists to pursue their passion full-time. By connecting talented artists with impactful gigs, we’ve helped many turn their dreams into a reality: playing music full-time. This success is a collaborative effort, and we’re deeply grateful to our dedicated artists, our hardworking team, and our ever-growing venue partners. Together, we’re not just booking shows; we’re fostering careers, enriching local music scenes, supporting local businesses, and spreading joy through the power of live performances. Here’s to the future of live music!

Our team cannot wait for The Lodging Conference. Live entertainment experiences make memorable impressions in the hearts and minds of guests, and we love hearing how our friends in hospitality are leveraging music and events to distinguish themselves from the crowd.

We got an S.O.S. from Cassie, a bar manager in Dallas. See how we helped her turn a major headache into a big win in her new job.

A big thank you to Denise Eisman and the Austin Hotel & Lodging Association for hosting such a fantastic expo for industry professionals and leaders! If you’re a hospitality professional aiming to enhance customer experience and boost RevPAR through live entertainment, look no further— GigFinesse can help build a live entertainment program that sets your venue apart! A special shoutout to Christian Olivo from Don Rico Tequila for the delicious margaritas and to Schuyler Andersen for spinning tunes that had everyone vibing throughout the conference. Your contributions made the event truly memorable!

In 2023, Javier Soliz achieved his dream of becoming a full-time musician. In his first year with GigFinesse, Soliz booked over 120 shows. This year, the blues crooner is on track to play 200 gigs! Soliz sat down with us to explain how GigFinesse helped him become one of Austin’s most in-demand blues artists. Check out Javier’s story!

Meet Jordanne, one of our integral marketing team members! Tell us a little bit about your role/what you do: I do everything from client & company branding, to some social media, to copywriting, graphic design, and my primary medium, photography! I oversee some of our special projects or any one-off creative assignments. What is your favorite part about working for GigFinesse? I love working with our team day in and day out. It’s such a special group of individuals united by a single goal that we’re all passionate about—enhancing the live entertainment experience. In what ways have you been able to grow in your position? I would consider myself a jack-of-all-trades, but feel like throughout my time at GigFinesse I have really gotten the chance to hone and grow in my graphic design and marketing management skills. Having the chance to be creative day in and day out is one of my greatest loves alongside digging my feet into marketing data. Working with GigFinesse in an industry I love has helped me blossom as a marketer. Tell us a Fun Fact about you: I love sharks almost as much as I love music. If I wasn’t working in or have a degree in Music, I would have become a marine biologist to work in shark conservation. Jordanne is also an independent neo-soul/alternative R&b artist with more music in the works.
