Analysis, knowledge and skills for the modern global music business
Few companies have been at the direct-to-fan game as long as Music Glue. 18 years after its launch, the company has revealed its latest tool for artists selling tickets directly to their audiences. It’s an upgrade to its existing platform, supporting concerts worldwide including a managed presales service.
Music Glue will also enable promos where fans pre-order albums to get access to ticketing presales; host custom-branded artist pages; and support VIP and meet’n’greet experiences around live dates. The company charges a 10% booking fee on tickets sold through its platform.
CEO Mark Meharry (pictured) described it as a “fully enhanced one- stop shop that seamlessly upgrades the direct-to-fan ticketing experience and connects artists with fans in the most efficient, transparent, and profitable way possible, while giving them full autonomy over their own data.”
