Our Mission
Right now it's a lot more hassle to go to a concert on a Friday night than it is to go to the cinema. Songkick wants to change that, by helping more people go to see great live music. We do that, first of all, by putting all the listings and all the concert tickets in one place so you can see everything happening. Then, we have a plug-in for your music player that learns what bands you like and lets you know if they come to your city. Finally, we recommend concerts in your area you might like, but don't know about, based on your personal taste.
Our People
We’re a bunch of live music fans based in East London who want to make it more fun to discover and go to concerts. We’re involved in the London hacker community, and run a monthly meet-up. More here: http://www.songkick.com/team
